    Default Bird ringing demonstration Theale, July 4th, 2010

    For those members of TVB local to Berkshire, the Reading and Basingstoke Ringing Group are holding a demonstration at Hosehill Lake, Theale, Just along from the Sand Martin Wall.

    I went to the Padworth Common demo last year and had a very enjoyable and informative morning, see the forum thread: Bird ringing demonstration at Padworth Common

    If you can make it along, say so in this thread as it would be nice to meet up.

    Would offer you a lift Joe, but as you know, I have limited capacity in my van.

    It's scheduled to finish at 11 Mark, last time at Padworth there weren't lots of people and I left at just before 11.am, don't know if they went on much longer.

    It'll be nice if you can make it.

    I knew you wouldn't have room Rolf that's why I didn't ask. Just thought I'd offer some moral support..
