Feeding time at Penguin Cove may look like a frenzied, fishy lolly scramble.
But as National Aquarium keepers pass out specially imported sprats to the Cove's inhabitants, they ensure no bird gulps down too much – or too little.

Thanks to many of you - I have started to get my garden back on track, sold eggs, purchased additional furniture and have a new aviary "in the wings" (hah) with all the treasure you've donated.

It's been awesome and I have to say - although originally unsure of the value of the site - I am 100% a fan.

Happy Holidays / Safe travels etc to you all and here's to a very neighbourly new year :)
