Is it one of those triangular shaped biscuits that are served with ice-cream but on second thoughts it looks totally plastic and inedible, so maybe not.

Is he eating another insect? I often find ladybirds etc are eating another insect when I load the shots on to the laptop, well thats what organic gardening is all about, getting one species to devour the others. I had loads of black aphids on my plants when I went on holidays they were all gone when I came back thanks to the ladybirds, hoverflies etc. No pictures unfortunately.

Hi Ann
Pleased that you are taking up the camera again. If you look at the front of the lens it will say someting like 18- 55mm or 50-250mm etc. I think that something like 50 -250 mm would be good for the Zoo but if you have an 18-200mm you can go wide angle and zoom in close as well with the 200mm which on a dslr with crop sensor is about 350mm.?? 18mm is used for say landscape and then if you want to zoom in on an animal etc you use the 200mm. Can you post some of your shots from the Zoo and also let us know what lens you used.

If you are in private sector you pay your own pension contributions into a fund which over the years goes up or down depending on the economy. You then invest the amount that has accumulated when you are 65 or later when you can afford to retire and your pension is the interest earned on your fund. It will probably be very little with the drop in pension funds in the past 18 months.

If you are in public sector you get a guaranteed pension which I think is probably half of your retiring salary no matter what you contributed.

Maybe its the guaranteed pension that should be changed. All their contributions should be treated as in the private sector. They just do not appreciate the level of pensions they get because they do not pay the economic rate for them.
