I have to go now for a couple of hours too as have to pop into school to do some sorting out. The caretaker will only open up for a short while and I want to get it done today rather than drag it out through the hols.
So I'll see you all later - have a good day.

Trips off the tongue doesn't it?
I speak a little Thai, but this is really, really difficult, much harder than Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwlllantisiliogogogoch which I can say and remember after years of practice.
For those of you who don't know, this is the longest place name in Britain, a small town in Wales where the sign on the platform at the railway station is nearly as long as the platform itself.
It means "The church of St.Mary in the hollow of white hazel trees near the rapid whirlpool of St.Tilio's of the red cave."
It's also got the longest domain name on the internet.

There was an Armadillo in my back yard Saturday morning, but my dog chased him off before I could get my phone to take a photo.
Sorry. It would have been nice with the recent talks about them.
Next time.
Bonus points for photos of hedgehogs and armadillos (not net nicked).
Especially ones shot in a Cold Dark Room.

They are one of few animals that carry and can transmit Leprosy. But I'm sure that Adam is aware of that fact, as he is all knowing and all......
Yep, 'fraid I did.
But it's fairly safe, leprosy being the least contagious disease in the world and they are the only animal besides man that can transmit it.
Mind you, one of my toes is feeling a little loose this morning.

Some people are feeling nauseous today.
I'm sorry.
Hope it's not an outbreak of leprosy in The Cold Dark Room.
I played cards with a leper once, but he threw in his hand.

The octopus is a very intelligent animal, it can be taught many things,can learn quickly to open jars and perform actions. it is quite possibly the one of the smartest creatures on the planet and unlike some, such as the dolphin, is capable of construction and invention.
It's intelligence is spread over it's body and a lot of it is in the tentacles.
Unfortunately, and maybe luckily for us, it has a terrible memory, and forgets everything overnight and has to be retaught from scratch the next day.
