    Crows and their nests.

    I think the traditional date for shooting branchers was around the 12th May there was such a thing as a rook rifle, a short chamber .22cal. Plant out the runner beans the day after so I was once told.

    "A 'rook' nesting by its self will be a crow, lots of crows nesting together will be rooks,"

    Drivers Licence Renewal.

    Saw this thread this morning and just knew my licence had expired, checked and was a few days out. Online and £14.00 later plus a call to DVLA confirms as stated above that as long as there are no medical or driving bans current I am ok to drive. New one should be with me in three days.
