I see the MP Zara Sultana is holding a vigil outside the prison  to protest against the treatment of the hunger strikers.  What a strange surname that is btw 

Have a lovely time Michael, good to have company over Christmas.

A couple of photos of the Christmas Tree Festival I visited in Chester Cathedral, it was lovely.  We only managed about 10 or 15 minutes of the organ recital though

Animals are almost all either predators or prey. Nature programs content are frequently largely procreation or predation. 

You may wonder how easy this is.

These instructions...

Man wearing tweeds. he is smoking a pipe and wearing a pith helmet. he is lounging in a deckchair in a floral garden by a pond with a small fountain which he is watching intently. a goldfish head is peeping out of the pond looking back. A walking cane with an ornate head is leaning against the deckchair and a black labrador is laying at the man's feet

Produced this...



How long would it take to produce any other way?

Of course you may ask why would I want to?
I'd  just say because I can and it amuses me.

Quote from: Mups on December 19, 2025, 10:55:13 PMI have always liked and respected that man Muddy,  but lately I have been turning his programmes off.
The reason for this is,  there seems to be an abundance of nothing but blood thirsty kills taking up too much of the programmes now. 

 Yes, I know that's how wild animals live,  but when nearly the whole programme is taken up with nothing but animals ripping each other apart,  I have to turn off. 
And something that really irritates me even more,  is the way the kills are made more exciting by that awful excited orchestra which gets louder and louder as the terrified creature's demise approaches.  Why does an orchestra suddenly have to burst in??

I am interested in all aspects of animals lives,  not just someone filming terrified animals in their final minutes.

To be honest Mups I don't watch much tV now but I know what you mean I hate those scenes too .

So I beat the AI then with a fix. That was just an afterthought too.

Active in the last 10 minutes means having had sort of interaction with the forum either posting something or clicking one of the links. As I said I never log out and most of the time my if wont be there. 

Thanks for getting in touch Ruthio.  Our intermediary is equally as appreciative 🙄
