Trapped sparrow
A single sparrow is somehow trapped in the glass foyer of the now empty Smith City building next to New World.
I have rung the 0800 number in the window which goes to the Smith City national centre and they were looking into who the building owner is. Someone also notified New World who were also going to investigate how to have the doors open.
Any other suggestions? There is a vertical gap of under an inch wide down the side of the glass sliders, but I doubt the bird would have squeezed in there, but there are no other obvious entry points unless someone has recently accessed the building. I can get seed to it but water is more important and I am not sure how to carry out that task.

Paper Shredding
I will be doing a lot of paper shredding over the next few weeks. Is there anybody who would like the shredded paper. I don't know if you can use it for hamsters and other pets, maybe it could go in your compost.
Just let me know if you want some.
