Dave Brubeck died yesterday at the age of 91. I really like this:
This one is good fun. Try to clap with it and finish at the same time.
Thank you for some really good music.

Interesting bird
Earlier this year, we noticed that Pirouette was very excited about something outside the kitchen window. I had a look and saw this lovely bird sitting on a telephone line. It flew away before I could grab my camera. As I had no idea what the impressive bird was called, I tried googling a description, with no luck. Finally, a friend who's a bird enthusiast put me out of my misery. The name is as interesting as the bird itself: Hoopoe!

Remembering JD
Pallottine sent me this photo of a sign made by a young man down the road in memory of our lovely JD (stands for Just Dog).
Here are some nice pictures of JD:
The sign over the gate is a lovely way to remember a good friend. JD was definitely more than just a dog...

The watch
View_From_Here sent us a joke for the weekend. I'm sure TW will appreciate it!
Thank you, View.
A Scotsman walks into a pub and takes a seat next to a very attractive woman. He gives her a quick glance then casually looks at his watch for a moment.
The woman notices this and asks, 'Is your date running late?'
'No', he replies, I just got this state-of the-art watch, and I was just testing it..'
The intrigued woman says, 'a state-of-the-art watch?
'What's so special about it?'
The Scotsman explains, 'It uses alpha waves to talk to me telepathically.'
The lady says, 'What's it telling you now?'
Well, it says you're not wearing any panties.'
The woman giggles and replies, 'Well it must be broken because I am wearing panties!'
The Scotsman smiles, taps his watch and says, 'Bloody thing's an hour fast!'
