Nine Springs Park Yeovil

It has been a while since I have ventured into Nine Springs, I had a walk up the Ravine which has small ponds and waterfalls.
There is a good path right to the top. Here are some pictures I have taken.

Montacute House Snow drops starting to appear

Have been for a walk around the grounds at Montecute house (NT), snow drops are starting to appear.

 

The house and café may be closed but the grounds and shop were open.

Football fans Anti Social Behaviour on Abbey Manor

Football fans urinate on fences in Malmesbury way.  Fans urinate and leave graffiti on fence and road sign but have left before Police arrive. Two others were arrested! but within minutes were free to go, I guess they were given an on the spot fine. Who going to clean up?

The Regents Road sign  (SPOLGVE, EC FC)

The fans were on their way from the Arrow to Huish park. Residents near to the ground have to put up with the effects of large numbers of folks going to the ground, normally we just have to cope with dangerous and inconsiderate parking.

Thanks to the SSDC for cleaning up.
At least yeovil beat Exeter 2-1

Reckleford - Roadworks

The Traffic lights are at last working and the temporary lights have gone.

Will be interesting to see how the traffic flows, there is still some work to do adjacent to the shops to create the new layout.

Wessex water appear to be moving away from next to the Ambulance station, so there should be a free run through with out road works in the way.

Feeding Birds in Winter advice

My wife is a keen bird person and likes to make sure that the local birds are well fed! We had a visit yesterday to "Pets Takeaway" to buy a quantity of Nuts, wild bird food, sunflower hearts, suet pellets with meali worms.

The birds looked pleased to see me lugging it into the house, the cat had a smile as well.

The RSPB have plenty of advise and tips on looking after our feathered friends.
