hi guys ….

finished a little late last night ….painted ellies room ….as i finished i had stacked all the paint on the windowsill… so i could take it downstairs into the garage …i heard a rustling sound in the hall way …i walked out and screamed….there was a magpie fluttering at the window trying to get out ….he was landing on the sill then trying again ..just flapping at the window …i panicked and  locked myself in ellies room …..i was there for about ten minutes while i called karen and she calmed me down … she managed to persuade me that it wouldnt hurt me so i ventured out …..

i took the broom to try and persuade it to go downstairs and out through the patio doors  …but it came at me ……. i ducked…at it went into ellies room heading straight for the window …it bashed into the window again and stood on the sill …..right next to the paint …i tried to move closer and it started flapping again.

it stood on the side of the paint tin …..ohhh my god please no ….please …ive just finished i have managed not to spill a drop of paint  ive done a really good job and your gonna ruin it …please….. im normally no good at diy but ive done a really great job …..the bird started flapping and he dipped his feet into the paint and started at the window again …there were little paint marks appearing on the window ….please nooooooo…..i ran at the window opened the right hand side one and screamed ….a really long girlie scared scream ..

i’m not proud of screaming like a girl but he looked like a vicious magpie ….he carried on flapping then found the opening ….thank god ..i went downstairs to see where he had come in from …there was bird poo on the stairs ….in the hall …in the kitchen …..i remember my gran telling me it was lucky if a bird pooped on your head …well if thats true were gonna win the lottery …

i found were he had got  in from ….i had left the back door open for the dogs to go out and there food bowls are there by the side of the patio door …there were bits of dog biscuit everywhere ….he must have got in and nicked the dogs food and decided to have a wander round …

anyway today …get the kids ready for school comeback and start tidying up downstairs when i hear flapping again …i open the kitchen door and there he is again ……i only left the patio door a little open and the blytter is at it again …dog food all over the floor and hes trying to get out flapping at the patio door ….

he was clever enough to get in through the gap but couldnt get out … i ran at the patio door opened it and he flapped out ….ohhhy myyy god …….bird poo everywhere all over the kitchen floor ….. i can’t believe i have to clean up bird poo two days on the trot …..i could help thinking of my granny and her sayings ….it’s a double rollover this week …..fingers crossed …..

……..i know i should have taken some pics so that you guys believe me …well i swear it happend and im gonna take pics next time .. but for now im gonna post another pic that i took outside home base yesterday…….. Ahhhhhhhh
