Even if I could afford a house in surrey it would not be very practical and would inflame the passions of those who criticise long distance commuting.

The bird has flown! Checked the shed this avo while cleaning up the garden, mum and chick gone. How the chick learned to fly in there I don't know, but there was no sign of a dead chick anywhere, so I assume he/she/it did as nature intended. Recovered my road bike and gave it a good clean and polish. All bikes now fit for the road this summer.

Sorry,no. To be quite honest I thought the whole process would take a lot longer than it did. I expect that because there was only one chick-and no evidence of there having been any others-the whole process was accelerated, one chick gets all the food, develops quicker etc.
