hes ok - have phoned nhs direct who are busy and might take 4 hours to ring back - so i reckon he prolly need a tetnus shot - do i have to go to casualty now - or - can it wait til doctors on monday or even casualty tomorrow?

flum- is he rich?

the baby bird was stuck in the hedge on the floor and all the nasty seagulls were picking on it and so ds and friend decided it would be better in a nest where the other sparrows could see it and look after it - so they gave it a bath ( heaven help me i did'nt ask how) and dried it. ds then ca\rried the bird up the tree to the nest - put the bird in the nest - was quite content that another bird would come to look after it as they were all circling above - then he fell out of the tree.
