As you say thing can only get better, the Police are going around handing out £ 200.0 fines for the breaking of rules, a lady today was fined for drinking a cup of tea, they classed it as a picnic .<br />You both stay safe and well.<br />JohnTitus John Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02257227880929684276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4743646701098031420.post-72679199721519451172021-01-10T19:32:09.919+00:002021-01-10T19:32:09.919+00:00Hello Mike

Stay in your paradise to be well protected. <br />Thank you for this summary of the owls. The old photos help to better understand how the box fits on the pole! A telegraph pole! Yes what a good idea. Here the workers buried the telephone lines two years ago. They asked if we wanted to keep a post.... I said no but if I had known...!<br />I hope you still have lots of owls.<br />Have a good day and take care of yourself. <br /><br />Nathailes SANTA MARIAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14452756545820555931noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4743646701098031420.post-33775940626895122442021-01-10T11:43:45.588+00:002021-01-10T11:43:45.588+00:00Lovely story John with excellent pictures too.

I had not realized that Kestrels had also been tenants, and I expect that was very agreeable too. From what we read here it seems that the lockdown you are experiencing over there is really complete. It can only get better! Take good care. Best wishes to you and Veg. David and Miriam.David M. Gascoigne,https://www.blogger.com/profile/17229638811027153569noreply@blogger.com
