Don't see My tipple either :-( though there are a few I have a penchant for but particularly either
a good cognac, penderyn malt whisky, mead, ginger wine, a good port
other than that depends on the mood.
I agree about Wyo being called Miss Duck> It is wonderful to hear and see the stories and photos of the ducks Wyo, please keep them coming. I like to see the large photos too and then see Ms Penguines re-sized ones then, you get the best of both worlds!
Ducks ARE good pets, I have had a few from babies, used to have a bit of an animal refuge when living in Greece. My friend and I ran it. Ducks were included and they do make really great pets, so entertaining too. I also had a pair adopted us when we lived n Ripon and the canal was emptied whilst work was being done. They all needed to find other water sources and I interred a baby bath temporarily in the garden after seeing them hanging around a tiny bit of almost depleted water nearby for a number of days. They loved that bath, came every day and numerous visits. They were a 'married' couple my children named them Cheeky and Charlie. Learned a lot from their behaviour too watching them.
Another duck came one day and caused all out war nearly as he tried to have an affair with Cheeky but Charlie saw him off in the end!
I have some photos of them somewhere.
Sue so glad you are finally getting to go visit Mum> Im sure you will be fine, and your judgment will not be out of line in any way. Your nursing experience will help you get a better appraisal of everything.
