Bird feeders busy
The birds love the new feeders. At one stage I had over a dozen Goldfinches on the feeders outside the window and a similar number on the feeders at the bottom of the garden. We also have seen Blue Tits Sparrows Robins Magpies and Ring Neck Parakeet plus Pigeons of course. Seems the new feeders are popular. As I type this there is a queue forming but the parakeets are now dominating the smaller birds.
Bird feeders waiting for customers
It’s my birthday next week and I wanted some new feeders for the garden birds. Well we buy a lot of stuff from 
https://www.lovegardenbirds.co.uk and earlier in the week an order was places for two new four port seed feeders https://www.lovegardenbirds.co.uk/natures-market-large-stainless-seed-feeder we have already got two of these so knew how good they were. Marvellous value at £3.99 we also ordered a box 📦 of fat balls! No giggling at the back there 😊 bird food is serious business. Bucktons fat balls 150 in a box https://www.lovegardenbirds.co.uk/bucktons-150-fat-balls that should keep our garden birds busy. We also got a couple of Fat ball feeders https://www.lovegardenbirds.co.uk/bucktons-150-fat-balls Our garden birds are going to be well fed. If you fancy buying anything give https://www.lovegardenbirds.co.uk a look. This delivery took three days so the service is first class. Sometimes it takes longer but I have found them to always be superb.
Another Kirsty post on mental health
This post is just to great not to get a mention’Top 4tips for Self Care‘ you can find it here :- https://www.kirstykellyphotography.com/post/top-4-tips-for-self-care
I have written about my own depression many times before I was so depressed once I deleted all of my years of posts on several blogs I used to write. Well five blogs can be counted as several can’t it? Depression or the Black Dog as Winston Churchill used to refer to it is more out in the open now but it still takes guts to admit you are suffering and seek help.
Kirsty has written several posts about mental health and I have enjoyed reading them on her blog https://www.kirstykellyphotography.com/blog

To blog or not to blog
I have not done this whole lockdown thing very well. I was recovering from an operation in the early stages and from May I have been up and down with my MS and also my bowel problems. Today has been a marvellous day we actually ventured out and even ate out😊 fish and chips sitting in the car 😂 eaten looking out to sea at Cliftonville.
We then drove along the seafront to Westbrook to Barnes car park to see the waves breaking over the prom as they crashed on the concreted defences. I would have some photos for you but we didn’t think to take the camera 📷🙁.
The reason for this post is shall I give up blogging completely? I have loads of time but so little inclination now to actually get this rubbish down on to the screen. I get so few page views now I don’t feel I am contributing anything to the blogging world 🙁
It is rubbish
I have been out today, a rare occurrence in these times of Covid. Don’t jump to any conclusions about it being a nice thing to do, it was a visit to the wheelchair people at Ashford. Left home in plenty of time and arrived with only minutes to spare! Neither Heather nor I like to be late so we will always plan to be earlier than need be, always have and always will, a trait rubbed off onto two out of three of our children. Victoria if you read this take note.😆
Just as well we left in plenty of time today a junction we needed on the motorway was shut and that caused a detour on the journey of over twenty miles. The reason for this post being titled about rubbish is twofold, first we must have passed what seemed like dozens of posters saying “ take your rubbish home , others do” I find it disappointing that people need to be remind its their rubbish and if there is no bin Take It Home. It’s not rocket science, are people so stupid they need reminding, I recently saw a twitter post where people have walked up mountains to have a picnic then left all of their rubbish there just got up and walked away.
