Ccleaner has released a browser
https://www.ccleaner.com/ccleaner/browser
Sounds like the Avast Secure Browser to me ???
Yep, seems to be a rebranded version of ASB.

Now we have to await the flack if CCleaner installs avast and ASB as part of the ccleaner default (install everything) installation. 

I abandoned ccleaner after the first fiasco of a 5MB program installing a 360+MB program.

I wonder if this (see attached image) is the Avast Software Updater and if we see this as a ccleaner offer ;) currently it is part of the paid version of ccleaner.

Hi Dave, yes. (Btw, it's also included in Cleanup Premium.)

Interesting that it is in the Avast Free program, but part of paid ccleaner programs, presumably it covers more programs.

This picture was created by Google Photo as a panorama. Looks like a very nice rendition.
This example was created from 7 pictures that I took yesterday and it looks like the road has a turn in it which is not the case.
This road is as straight as an arrow for over 1 mile. Just goes to prove that you can't always believe your eyes.

An early morning visitor.
<snip image>

For breakfast ;)

I have lots of early morning visitors, the pond at the back of my house has moorhens and mallard ducks.  So far this year there have been two broods of moorhens and mallards.  The mallards are a pain in the backside over 6 Drakes (male mallards) looking for Hens (female mallards) and territory. 

The Mallards are thugs, constantly mugging the moorhens when they are taking food (that I give them) to their chicks.  Hell they even steal food from the latest brood of mallard ducklings.

So far none of the previous broods have been moved on, so the pond is very full.  Usually the moorhens when they reach adolescence help feed the current brood, if there is a third brood the adults chase off the first brood.  The Mallards don't appear to do that and they have lots of fights and come and go as they please.

There is one saving grace, predation, a heron is a frequent visitor, usually to fish (goldfish, dumped and thriving), they also seem to be partial to young ducklings and moorhen chicks (not so much these).  The first brood of ducklings started out at 12 of them but that soon dropped to just 6.  So far the second brood of ducklings have fared better staring out at 11 and now only 9.

Both the moorhens and mallards camp out in my back garden waiting to be fed, I chase the adult mallards (keeps me active even after my walks) and feed the ducklings and moorhens.

Well I managed to get some pics, but to get them at what I consider a reasonable file size some definition is lost.

The pond is reasonably big, a teardrop shape about 30 yards at its longest and 20 yards at its widest.

It won't be that long before these ducklings are big enough and whilst I can stand outside my back door and put some food out a few yards away they have no problem with my proximity.  There are a lot of people in the village that come to the pond with their kids to feed the ducks, that is why there are so damn many of them.

I can see the proud Mom. Is the pond big enough for a rowboat?
