• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

    NHS - truly amazing service

    Good luck Adrian, I hope all goes well for you and you make a full recovery. I had a scary episode like yours this year, blood everywhere. Like you, I had a fast response from the G.P.'s. "Prostatitis" in my case, and it cleared up, but yes, God bless the N.H.S..

    We've been invaded.....

    Yep. I have 2 big picture windows and 40-odd resident pigeons. Regularly get spectacular "thuds" and a subsequent 'ghost' image of preening oil, mid-pane. Rarely injurious or fatal, seemingly. Winged rats are robust?

    We've been invaded.....

    FSA? Thank you for the correction; I was using too broad a brush to make the point. Whichever body it is, publicising: i.e. four potential vectors of (say) avian 'flu were in your prep area, will have the dear chaps pointing out the difference between al fresco dining loci and whatever mise en...

    We've been invaded.....

    The Bass Rock is presently pure white, with...even a few woodbudgies can generate a truely surprising amount of uric acid and other solids. I'd be wary of spreading the news that your nosherie is attracting avian deposition? Think H&S inspectors visiting.

    You do know Mike, don't you, there is a lurid rugby song almost word for word the phrase above? Yes, I ken you were referring to cricket, but....

    Little critters

    Completely! The treatment of Indigenous Peoples across the North American continent has been inexcusable, and (to some extent) continues today. A parallel exists in Australia of course.

    Little critters

    Like Rob, I cannot anthropomorphisise and call them cuddly. Disease-spreading, ecosystem wrecking, furbags. Sorry Benton, I watched them destroy our native reds here,and I am deeply minded to paraphrase a comment from WW2 re American servicemen: "over-paid, over sexed and over here" into...
