Only just got back from my leaving do - scampi n chips and a game of skittles - we do things in such high style in darkest Dorset. Actually my house looks like a florist's shop but the scents are delightful and my colleagues gave me a nice contribution towards the microscope I want to buy to dissect owl pellets.

For those not in the know, owls swallow their prey whole and the bones and fur/feathers come up in the shape of a pellet. The mammal society runs a scheme in which volunteers dissect these out and identify the bones for data on what owls are hunting with special emphasis on identifying the mammal bones. I'm hoping to become involved in this in the near future.

So, the reason for posting this is to say I don't have time to write Bike tonight, but will hopefully be back to my scribbling tomorrow.
