Great tits cope well with warming

Post by steve_earwig »

I kid you not, this really is a headline from the BBC!

Here.
At least one of Britain's birds appears to be coping well as climate change alters the availability of a key food.

Researchers found that great tits are laying eggs earlier in the spring than they used to, keeping step with the earlier emergence of caterpillars.

No you're not the only one mate, but I was completely lost for words :oops:

Funny how times change innit? I mean when "Are You Being Served" was first aired in the '70s, Mrs Slocombe would emerge from some catastrophe soaking wet and clutching her pet cat, she'd come up with a line such as "Oooh Captain Peacock, me pussy's got all wet" which was a little bit rude. "Pussy" meant "cat", with perhaps a slight hint of "vagina", but now it's the other way around. :shock: :shock: Perhaps that's why it doesn't seem to show up on the satelite channels these days. The great British public just couldn't cope with graphical descriptions of Molly Sugden's level of sexual arousal :| :roll: :lol:

[Captain Peacock beckons to Mrs Slocombe]
Mrs. Slocombe: Captain Peacock, I do not respond to any man's finger.

More, umm, all over the place.

I have a suspicion I had to have "pussy" explained to me (oh come on, I was 7 in 1972!) but I knew it was stuffed with innuendo. What really surprised me is Dad's Army was too, I always wondered why my dad was giggling so much, I realised when it came round again of course.
More surprises:
Clive Dunn is 88, Ian Lavender is 62 (I didn't realise he was in Casualty and Eastenders, times must be hard :( ) and Bill Pertwee is almost 82!

tend to loose a little plumage and expose themselves more when
the sun is out :P all we need now is the young pussy's to follow

so hopefully it will bring those out to :P :P

Actually, the last time I was up at the open-air swimming pool here there was a huge flock of great tits, some sporting very little in the way of plumage

*Yes, they sunbathe topless < :shock: > (holding binoculars)

I'm comfortable with my old fart status so I don't mind admitting I remember it too. Just for anyone that doesn't :cheesy:

I was just reading the comments on that and I spotted someone's written "the number one song in austria right now " :lol: :lol:
