He then goes on to discuss his views on his choices of lady companions and how he came to choose some ladies over others, and how he'd found their age was influential in his decision of who his dates were going to be. And when Paul Revere rode throughout the night to warn the Colonials--The British are comming!----old shrewdie Ben probably had that figured out all along anyway, such was his experience over the younger Mr Revere. You are certainly are very informed on American history Paul! I happen to love our Colonial history. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I took my car for an MOT and while I was waiting, a fella who had been delivering car parts came back. Chris (the owner) asked him why had he had come back and he said just round the corner he spotted a duck sitting on top of a drain cover with 5 baby ducklings next to her. She was making a hell of a noise and he could hear some ducklings calling back to her, he went an investigated and saw 6 baby ducklings down the drain! He said he couldn't just leave them so came back to see if she had a crowbar to lever off the drain cover. All 3 of us trooped over there and eventually we got the cover off, he lifted out the ducklings and I guided them to their Mother, as soon as she knew they were all safe she just waddled off LOL not even a thankyou! In the end she had 13 baby ducklings following her!!! Ahhh they are so sweet, its a pity I never had my camera with me. My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions

I saw ducks, ducklings and geese wandering around everywhere. It was fabulous and something I would never see here in London. We have Canada geese but they have become more of a nuisance than anything else. By the way Lyn, what is an MOT? My favourite: Pictures \| Towns \| Attractions
