COLD DARK ROOM

[CarolM]

Absolutely. The CDR came into existence when we Brits couldn’t resist the urge to pun in other threads.

Let’s just say our sense of humour isn’t always understood.

Anyway, we have developed into a truly international bunch of of friends who occasionally talk sense, support each other and our pets and generally enjoy life

I’m Linda and I’m the other side of the Thames estuary from you in Kent. Welcome to the CDR

Has anyone seen the snow leopard? Or does her absence explain the lack of carrots in my house?

Dam i keep on forgetting about the snow leopard.

 

[CarolM]

Spider pun intended? ( Wrap it up)

Whahaha. Actually I am learning from the pro's on here. Their lessons have obviously been quite effective as that was totally unintentional.[emoji23] [emoji23]

This bird is a Green Woodpecker. They actually spend more time in grassland eating ants than inn trees. They’re a less common visitor to our garden. We get the black and white, tree-dwelling Great Spotted Woodpecker regularly.

Are they regarded as a problem bird or do you like having them in your garden?

Definitely not a problem bird. I love seeing them

Good to know.

So we all got the Germany match result wrong. Germany broke the run of every European club winning so far by losing... They always spoil things for England; we were fairly sure we would stop the run of European results tomorrow

Lol. Them losing definitly upset the cart. Going to have to rethink the new picks. But not sure how. Normally the goals have been conservative in the WC's these have been all over the place.

They just may be another surprise and actually win. Then Lena's wishful thinking will come true.

Lol. I can't wait until when we don't have to count litres as well. So no worries.

I wish for you that the day that you haven`t count litres of water any longer comes soon.

I sometimes get woodpeckers where I am, my house backs onto the woods and sometimes you can hear them pecking on the trees!
Also, no, the gaint beaver ate your carrots, the snow leopard is currently on holiday somewhere warm...

 

[Bee62]

Bee62, I'm English and live in Essex ( nothing like the TV show by the way)
Haven't really considered time zones till now, it's about 5:00PM where I am!

Hi James, please call me Bee ( that`s my nick name everywhere ) or Sabine. Time zones are sometimes really confusing. When I say: "Good afternoon" our American friends just have finished their breakfast..... and so on. Funny things these time zones.

 

[rjamesbeasley]

Strange aren't they?

I saw the snow leopard near the penguins. Maybe she regrets to be vegetarian on carrot diet ...... I hope not.

Nice ! A woodpecker that pecks between weeds should be called a weedpecker ! He can be green too.

What ?

They only eat insects. They are "good" birds.

Psssst ! It is a secret.... LOL !
