Jottings from SW Surrey. This used to be mainly about energy but now I've retired it's just an old man's rant. From 23 June 2016 'til 12 December 2019 Brexit dominated but that is now a lost cause. So, I will continue to point out the stupidities of government when I'm so minded; but you may also find the odd post on climate change, on popular science or on genealogy - particularly my own family.

The Swifts Are Back
At this time of year there's always one thing to worry about. Will our swifts be back? We always have a few and it's a great joy to sit out on a balmy summer's evening to watch them screaming overhead. However, their numbers have been dwindling and we fear the first year when none returns. One Monday, one appeared. By Wednesday there were three up in the sky. And over the weekend four have been providing a wonderful aerial display. Four may seem (and is) very few - but at least it's not zero.
