Thank you Pete

Well . Believe it or not I was born in a barn on a farm by candle light

Well I'm really intrigued by your revelation here Beryl and of course now you have told us this there would be no way I would not believe you......so are you going to try it?

Pete.

I'm a qualified swimming teacher (retired) and can still skim across the water...............not on my feet....... though they do play a big part

Merlin Regular Member Info Real name: Pete Location: N W England Gallery: 6 Equipment: Nothing but my notebook which is one of the most important parts of birding. To go out without it (which I only ever did once) is like going out without your pants on. I've never understood why I responded to the 'Cameras and Equipment' question in this way because in reality I own a Leica Telescope with eyepieces, Zeiss Binoculars, and a Manfrotto Tripod all of which cost a positive fortune.
