It's that time of year again. The brochure is now with the printer and the job of sticking stamps on to polylopes has begun. Actually we started last week but the next morning all the stamps fell off again - they'd sent us the wrong polylopes! A phone call put that right and the correct ones arrived yesterday afternoon. It's just bad luck on Karon that her one morning a week (she's off most of the time during school holidays) found a pile of stamps on her desk. She's been very nice about it.
To make up I took Karon to see the Osprey. A couple of friends and I saw the youngster taking a test flight on Sunday which was wonderful. We couldn't see anything in the nest - it wasn't a very nice day so perhaps they were hunkering down - but there was an adult on a nearby tree giving excellent views. Then we came back to the office and there was a tiny Goldcrest flitting around outside. From very large to the smallest British bird in 10 minutes!
Now I'm pretending to be busy doing the blog so that I don't have to knuckle down and stick on stamps. My turn will come! There are still quite a lot of day by day itineraries to be finished and things never really ease up but I'm trying to take a bit of time off over the next week to prepare for the onslaught.
