I can't recall where we were talking about the moon earlier so I'll post the one fair picture I got, here, it's not as bad as I thought it was.
But it does seem that it was not a full moon as I thought.
I was visited by a pretty little moth this week:
This was not a large specimen but I had never seen it before so I contacted my friend Dean at Dean's Daily Diary and he advised me that it is a Micro moth with the name Small Magpie. Isn't it pretty?
I'll try that again!

That is a very pretty moth, TA. I love most of them except for the dull brown ones that fly out when I unfold my sweaters after a summer in storage 
How do you know it was not a full moon? It looks pretty full-moonish to me in your photo.

If you look at the bottom right hand quarter you'll see a slight flattening, indicating that it is still waxing.
I'll try that again!

Full moon was on the 27th of May which was Thursday and I think that was when you took the photo TA, same night we were saying how beautiful it was. Am I right?

Quite right Danuta, I should have said that it was waning. I get quite confused where the moon is concerned.
I'll try that again!

I misread a road sign when I was in-car navigator in Cornwall last year, those tulips are in fact to be found in the "lost cardigans" of Heligan.
My sign reading is on a par with my technical proficiency.

I love the pictures, but the lines of text are too long for the column width and the picture of the small magpie is cut off on the right. The cutoff means the first line of the post ends "pictu".) I notice that another new thread is also too wide for me to read, but the old ones are fine.
Is there a way I can make the forum wider, is it because I missed the software update, is it Firefox on a Mac, or is it just me?
