There has been much "messing about on the river" over the weekend and again today, and as you can imagine Nigel has been almost beside himself ........
.......... three men in a (rescue) boat .......
........ plus a mahoooosive barge with a crane on bashing (we think) large poles into the river bed.
Nigel has also now convinced himself that he really needs a life jacket, to go over his hi-viz vest (which we still haven't found yet), just in case he is invited on board at sometime during all the work, for his valued opinion!!!!
It's almost too industrially romantic and exciting for the little fella to bear, although I have to add he is a little concerned about how his swans will be able to cope with all this upheaval.
Goodness knows what we are going to do with him over the next few months ...... as this is only just the beginning of "our adventure", let's just hope it doesn't turn out to be a bridge to far, as far as keeping him grounded (or afloat) is concerned.

Good luck, keeping Nigel calm, over the coming months!
I suspect you will need some diversionary tactics. Perhaps LL and TtS can help, when things get too much, as they surely will.
Think you might have to tie a bit of string around his waist, which will allow him to go as far as the river bank but not beyond it! JantheFan x
