How about this? It's a Privet Hawk-moth, the UK's largest resident moth. My work colleague found it dead in Dover Eastern Docks this afternoon. It's the first one I've ever seen.

Bit of a shame that Phil. Perhaps we should lobby DHB for privet hedges.

Perhaps each Dover resident could invest in a bush under Charlie's new scheme Sid!

Sounds good to me, and I know Howard is a bush fan too.

Not a bush but any rock will do.
grass grows by the inches but dies by the feet.

Great pictures Paul, but only his mother could love him.

Yeah, just imagine waking up in the morning and finding him on the pillow looking right at you. And I don't mean Mark!

At least if the windscreen lied on the first date he'd see straight through it!
