Robins are pretty common so it must work. I think most small birds operate on that sort of schedule. They are safer from predation outside a nest than in one. Magpies are pretty common too  

I think this is the last place of my own I'll have. I couldn't face moving. Certainly not to anywhere smaller. The cost in skips alone would rule it out.

I only had an older brother,  so No,  we didn't share clothes.

It doesn't hurt any more, so from that point of view it's very much better, but still red and swollen, I suppose it will eventually disappear but it's taking its time!

Good grief Ruthio,  I didn't even know they still made it.
What a pity you didn't ask the pharmacist earlier, and it might have gone by now.

Didn't we used to use something called  'Golden Eye Ointment'  on them?
