come home from work Friday found a little blackbird chick on my drive not quite fully feathered so it could not fly and very weak, put it in a polishing cloth in side a box to warm it up tried to feed it with a syringe but it was just to weak. so left him to warm through see if it comes round which it did and started taking food which was boiled egg biscuit and milk mushed up and in a syringe dripped into its mouth. Saturday morning he was chirping and hopping about my son fed it and kept it clean but it seemed a bit weak again when I came in from work later so I fed it some more and it seemed to respond. couple of hours later it was proper weak and barely moving I feared the worst and unfortunately later that evening it died.. we tried our best but I think it was out of the nest too long. lifes frail innit.

I used to work for vardys when they were taken over by parent company pendragon who trade as evans halshaw amongst others. they don't give a f**k about people all they are bothered about is targets and profit. all big dealers are the same now. find a small garage with decent skilled trades people and stick with them they tend to care more about there service and reputation. or buy a big van get it signed up with a something like" evans halshaw sold me a potentially dangerous car" park it legally outside there showroom the feckers will soon sort something out. if you diy mike at least you know its done right.

you will have a great day at santa pod dave we went some years ago when the finals of the nationals was on 5000 horse power dragsters howlin down the strip take some ear defenders or plugs they are feckin loud. what I really liked about it was you could walk round the pits and get up close to the cars and bikes and the owners will all talk to you. stand at the end of the strip behind the start line for a while but don't wear a white shirt you come away covered in bits of tyre the boys on the bikes are proper brave they squirm all over but rarely back off the power. you will get some great pics too if you stand on the hill beside the strip. hope the weather is good for you and get ready for some noise.
