Always loved a Red Admiral...

It was the first butterfly I ever really knew and could identify. So it comes as a bit of a shock to find that our butterflies are in almost as much danger of decline as our bees. Now we've all got to take part in a butterfly count, to do a survey of the British butterfly population, and watch out for the Painted Ladies and the Peacocks.

And thanks to all my lovely listeners for their great ideas for staycation "must-see" places. Today, we had ideas for visiting the Air Forces Memorial at Runnymede, which is apparently a lovely, peaceful spot. Also there, of course, is the Magna Carta and JFK memorial. I also learned that Lewis Carroll bought a huge house in Guildford for his six unmarried sisters, and that's where he died in 1898, after having written "Through The Looking Glass" in Guildford, too. More ideas -the UK Wolf Conservation Trust at Beenham, near Reading - though I think we'll have to become members before we pop along there! But a great idea for the future....
