Does anyone know how I get hold of a moderator please?
A new (and I think young) member posted a question about diet in the site feedback thread by mistake.
I told him to post it in the diet or health threads which he did, but then his posts were merged and ended up back in the wrong thread.
There used to be a section telling you which mods were logged in but it looks like its gone now.

Un lapiz es en la mesa!
Well...I looked this up in my Spanish dictionary and came up with this: 1.your lipstick is on the floor. Or 2.your pencil is on the staircase. Or 3.your crayon is on the drawing board. To be fair though...I was recently spotted at Lowe's playing with wood blocks and Lowe's metal parts...

I have taken my car to the car wash, bought some onions and some daffodils (I don’t intend to consume the latter), and collected a letter from the sorting office that needed a signature. I’m now drinking tea whilst observing the nest box.

There hasn’t been a lot of action of any sort to see today. There was a bit of a scuffle this morning, but mostly the box has been empty. I hear a bird land at the entrance from time to time, but she hasn’t often been in.

JoesDad’s plane left 45 minutes late and also has to detour round Pakistan which adds an hour, so it will likely be 7.45pm before he lands. The upside is that the M25 motorway will be far less congested by the time he gets out of the airport, so his taxi ride home should be a bit quicker. I am still not expecting him before 10pm
Have fun when he gets home. I wish young families could be together every day...but they have to make a way.

I love my 5 gallon Fluval! Yes, I guess bigger is better but for one Betta, snail and shrimped it’s plenty. It fits in my kitchen nicely and the filter and pump are hidden. It even has room in the pump department for a heater so that’s hidden too.
Lots of YouTube videos on this one.

That's looks like the one I'm seeing at petsmart. I still have a lot of studies to do. I will buy the right size aquarium when I can get it cheap cheap. Get it set up then wait until I find my little one.

I’ll add Glasgow, Newcastle and Birmingham to that list. They’re all strong accents and to be fair to Yorkshire, Lancashire is just as bad.

Then there’s a good strong Somerset or Cornish accent... or Bristol...

So many accents in the UK. All very different and some of them pretty near unintelligible when at their strongest :D

Aaagh yes, Glaswegians!

My brother in law is from Lancashire and when we first met him none of us could understand a word!
When my sister was teaching in Lancashire the kids often couldn't understand her.
She would say 'Look at your book'
They would say 'Luke at your Buke'
Jug was pronounced joog (oo as in book)
She had to change the way she spoke!!

I can't find the thread you're talking about.
