On a lighter note from letters in The Press recently about politics, I thought readers may be interested in a sighting of a woodpecker in my garden.
I have never seen a woodpecker before, but as I have seen one many times on the TV it was easily identified.
When I went on to the RSPB website it would appear it was the great spotted woodpecker, black and white and about the size of a blackbird.
I wonder if any readers in the Acomb area have also seen this bird. I must say it quite made my day.
