Helloi, Elle!
Yes, Dani had a bad crash and is on the way back.
Think it was broken ribs etc.
The way I understand it, GB is allowed three riders in the road race. It looks as if it will be Lizzie, Emma Poolley (who has came out of retirement) and one more. Dani hopes to get that place.
Do you not have catch up TV?
I do, but I have never used it.
Look at your menu?
Maybe on YouTube?
We have a blizzard here!
Heavy snow.
If you look at the osprey site Lassie appears not to like the snow!

Hi, Rusty!
I don't even know what "Catch up TV" is? I certainly don't have it!
I'm fed up with modern technology!!
A blizzard? Snow? Oh dear! and is the snow continuing to fall? how deep is it expected to lie?
It's pretty when it first falls, but so treacherous as it turns to ice.
Be careful when you go out tomorrow.
Yes, I looked in on Lassie - she looks thoroughly miserable......I can't say I blame her!
We have rain forecast here...it should start at 10 pm......but fortunately no snow.
If it snows here, I shall hibernate!
Now, time for a coffee - and I still have a crossword to do.....

Rusty,
Our posts crossed!
I've just seen your message about Hamish McD.
I checked it out on the blog but they don't explain what happened?
That poor owner - now she has lost both ducks.....

Hello, Elle!
I think I have catch up TV.
It is a system that allows you to watch last weeks programmes.
I think the TV has to be linked to WiFi.
My son set mine up, but I have not used it.
It will be complicated, I imagine.
Our snow has stopped but there is a coating on the ground.
A pity about Hamish. I suspected this would happen.
There was a bit on BBC News Scotland Tayside website today about Lassie chasing away intruders from her nest.
Just wondering if they will have a report on Hamish?

Good morning, Elle!
A bit snowy here!
Anyway, I cannot do links anymore.
My brain has forgotten how!
So, type Hamish McDuck into Google search box and click on top story, by Dundee Courier.
It is a very sad tale.

Good morning, Rusty!
A lovely, sunny, but very cold, day here!
No snow though!
Are you having falling snow, or just yesterday's "remains" lying on the ground?
Have you been out yet for your paper?
I hope it isn't slippy underfoot?
I found the reference to Hamish McD in the Dundee Courier.
How very sad.
I wonder why it wasn't possible for someone - perhaps not the owner because of disturbance to the ospreys, but maybe a member of the Reserve staff - to have "rescued" Hamish from the site earlier?
After all, a life was at stake here?
I feel so sorry for the owner of both ducks.
(Aunt Rhody would be devastated).
Going to look at the crossword now.....I'm drinking coffee, and eating an apple and a piece of cheddar cheese!

Hello, Eirlys!
Thank you so much for finding the link for me to watch my "missed "programme.
That is most kind of you. It is much appreciated!
