Off to London tomorrow for a Gig at Harlesden. A lovely school I was there around World Book Day earlier in the year. It is an early start! I have had to learn some new stories and returning to some old favourites. I am entering a busy spell of Gigs as Christmas approaches.

Had a marvellous bird watch on Friday, spectacular views of three Short Eared Owls, Stonechats and Kingfisher.   Saw two Owls have a spat and locked claws! It certainly made up for our Bird Survey Thursday morning where we got absolutely soaked! I also saw my first Brambling of the winter and it was in the garden!
