  2. i've just sown the purple podded peas that Celia sent me... will be lovely to have lots of colourful peas.

    I love the yellow of these, and the flowers are beautiful too.

    Maybe we should have a seed swap next year?

  3. Hilarious - I have just read three blogs in succession which all started with the sondewrful words - its a pea!!
    I love the photos of these emerging vegetables - and if the seeds have come from Celia they will be wonderful.

  4. Not a response to your post, but I can't find your email address and have a question for you.

    A while ago, you posted something about a bird book with barcodes and a barcode reader stylus that sang the birdsong for you. Or at least, that's how I remember it.

    I've just been googling trying to find where I can buy one, but only get US hits, which is not exactly what I want. I want British birds, of course.

    Do you have any idea what I'm talking about? Am I confusing you with someone completely different?

  5. Hi Charlotte! Aren't we all sad getting so excited about peas... :)

    These are my first peas though, so it's all new and fun.

    Yes Rob, you've got the right person. I have one, it's called BirdVoice and the website is here.

    I bought the main unit plus a set of stickers to put in my own field guide. Definitely a useful bit of kit. I haven't really used it the the field as such as I've hardly been birding since I got it, but it's also great for just learning the songs.

    And in case you want my email, it's scarlett_silverleafATyahoo.com (replace AT with @).

  6. Thanks, Anna, I've ordered a BirdVoicePEN and organiser. Problem is, they're supposed to be a birthday present for Jenny (oh yeah, who'm I trying to kid?) and her birthday's not until November.

  7. Can you wait that long Rob?

    Hope you (and Jenny of course, lol) enjoy it!
