Is it possible to make a little 'lean-to' for him so at least he has something to protect back and some of the sides ...

His back and the sides are covered - the back is blocked by stock fencing as well as a 'chicken wire' fence which are buried within the big old hedge, it's the frontal approach that is vulnerable. I have thought of constructing a 'wire' fence but he wouldn't go behind that :rolleyes: instead he would just go and find another of the pre-prepared (by them) hiddy holes! He is just so trusting of the wildlife and doesn't see the threat. He just moved away to let them attack the dinner rather than fight them off. 'Love and peace' is the nature of the Beardies!
 
Morning All :D
A late "up" today as she's getting her own paper and shopping for her Ma at the butchers.
I have started preparing the wooden casings and sills of the front bedroom bay window for a pin coloured woodstain which on the mahogany comes out looking like oak colours in the rest of the furniture of the room.:)
I have the part to fit to the car to resolve the fuel leak that happens on filling up, but I need the car over the Weekend so I may leave it till next week to be sure of getting it done.
I have promised to fix my son's leaking Central Heating radiator over the weekend (means a system drain-down). Silly boy has snapped the head off a lockshield valve while trying to stop the leak.:eek:
Have a great day everyone.:D

There are two of them in the garden but they do not like them and won't go in. They want to be out in the open to just lap up the atmosphere of country living!! This is the first year I have experienced this. Extermination seems to be only answer - the magpies not the dogs. :rolleyes:

Nasty little critters (magpies) they attack lambs and rag the nests of other smaller birds to feed their own young. I think you are allowed to trap them if they are endangering livestock (with a ladder-trap or the like) as long as you dispatch them humanely once caught. I don't like the thought of harming any animal but if they are threatening harm to yours, you may have to. :(
 
I just had a missed call on my mobile. They left a message saying they were from Barclays (who I don't have an account with) and call back.
Just thought it was a scam so deleted, blocked and move on.
Decided to check the number and it belongs to a hospital in Northampton o_O
Can numbers get cloned now? I must be really behind the times :(

I checked my home phone and that has a call from the same number.
I rang them and they confirmed they didn't call..... :eek:
What is going on?

They normally detect software they dun't like and advise to uninstall first. AV software is quite deep rooted as the service starts before yer log int windows. So an uninstall often needs a restart as part of that. Uninstalls can go wrong like anyfink.

Yer link to the scam web site int nortons fault and wont have come from them. Yer probably search google by spellin norton wrong, which is a known way scammers advertise their own sites. Norton will watch out for peeps who try to mimic them but these sites pop up all the time. When killed they already have alternatives int background.

As with many fings int life, av suppliers want continued business. They dun't make uninstalls difficult ont purpose. All av's have options of auto scanning, boit scanning etc. They're essentially the same fing doing it in a similar way. The interface is different and the speed they react to a problem like a new virus varies.

I have since had to go back in and uninstall Teamware, which was still there after the "System Restore" which I thought it might be. Wifey and I had a bit of a chat about this and for once I was right. We allowed it to restore "Teamware" as it appeared to have the Norton logo in it symbolising a piece of stuff it might need.

Anyway, with Teamware uninstalled I tested Norton again, its absence doesn't seem to bother Norton. so good news!
Incidentally, I never searched Google for Norton at all, the website that was on the card with the product code on it, the one they told me to use, was the only thing I used, and I typed it painstakingly into the address bar. So there is deffo a rat in Norton. Or connected to Norton by one of their employees. :rolleyes:
And yes I had to do lots of restarts until all uninstalls had worked as well as downloading their thing to uninstall stuff via iexplore as it wouldn't download via Chrome.
I actually think I have learnt a bit of stuff doing all this!
And thanks again for your help and explanations. :):):):):)
