A brief history of this website – in 2010 I started to use WordPress; before that I used HTML but I don’t think I’ve still got anything that was from that earlier version (possibly I have); in 2020 I wiped 10 years of posting from the site as a prelude to revamping the whole thing; but I kept the data with the idea that I would recreate it in an improved format; the revamp is still a plan but anyway I thought I would reproduce some of the posts from that teen decade of the 21st century, starting with what I think was the first post. Here’s the rebirth of Animal Stamps<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

number 1 – a couple of chinese yaks<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>another of our bovine friends from cameroon – this one only seems to have 3 legs<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>our first european animal – a hungarian hedgehog – I assume that’s a mother handling one of her offspring with her teeth, but what do I know?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>This one’s a male I think. Predictably elephants in Laos are now an endangered species.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>our 2nd european animal this romanian ermine doesn’t look very friendly. I like the background colour.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>finally a yugoslavian lynx. lynxes haven’t done too well for the last 100 years but there’s a lot of effort to replenish numbers. if approached by a lynx grab it by the scruff of the neck and drop it in the nearest wheelie bin you can find.<\/p>\n

NOTES: the last reference to putting a lynx in a wheelie bin relates to a news item in the autumn of 2010 when a woman (I think that’s the right sex) was seen to pick up somebody’s pet cat and drop it in a wheelie bin. I think everybody has now forgotten that incident apart possibly from the woman who did it and the person\/people who owned the cat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
