The Countryfile team were at the Isles Of Scilly last week... and they went rockpooling...( I love rockpooling). what sort of crab is this?... oh that's an edible crab. How unlucky is that crab - out of all the types of crab to be born, to be born an edible crab. Mum mum! What sort of crab am I? Oh you're an edible crab son. What does that mean mum? It means you taste fantastic on toast with a bit of lemongrass. Oh.

My favorite rockpool ... I check it out everytime we go to Cornwall.

Mmmmmmm So clear. Cool

Wish I was there now, bit warmer, no-one else around (well, no, I'd need someone to educate me as to what everything was - poor, ignorant townie that I am)

I love Countryfile, and get to see a bit more of it now they've moved it to the evening. It is a bit Blue Peter/Animal Park in its style, but we mustn't be picky. Just to have real wildlife, country and rural affairs shown and discussed on prime time tv, and without interruptions to sell you wrinkle cream, leather sofas and Katherine Jenkins latest warblings is a major achievement

I think the BBC will have been pleasantly surprised by the popularity of Countryfile since it moved to 7pm. I used to watch for the week's weather when it was on at 11am. Always a good watch, especially "Adam's Farm".

Yeah, MiS, we like the Adam's farm bit. He's very good at explaining stuff is Adam, not your typical farmer- there's deffo a series to be made just about him and his farm I reckon.

Hey, Ron, don't knock the wrinkle cream adverts- we girls have to have some hope. Smile
