Re: All sorts of old stuff!
For anyone who hasn't got it, I highly recommend 'The Animal Lover's Book' - especially as it has a DW. Its a really nice book and is actually more of a novel than a nature book, despite the title!

hearts mad delight,
Sing on, sing on, and when the sun is gone
I'll warm me with your echoes
through the night.'

Re: All sorts of old stuff!
MrPunch, did you get a pm reply from me? As I've not heard from you I wondered if the message had gone to you or floating about in cyberspace somewhere! If you're busy that's fine, but I didn't want you thinking I was ignoring you .
