This lockdown business is getting tired and weary now. I'll give you an example of how it has affected me ... yes, tough, unsentimental me. I would actually be pleased (!) to meet The King of Bryher ! Cripes !! Things must be getting bad. Over the last ten months or so I've hardly had a single conversation with any birders at all, and hardly any that I knew by name, even ones I've known for 10, 20, 30 + years. Where are they ? What are they all doing ? This is no doubt happening to a fair % of the population, and it's not good. And this morning after the dismal weather forecast and the dismal-er news, I changed channels .... Cheers was just finishing and the theme tune got going...... Highlight of the day so far ... an unprecedented Rat v Squirrel scrap. Oddly, the Rat won ... and the Squirrel scarpered. Here's a few " King of Bryher" posts ... 168-in-which-i-decide-to-carry-on-being-a-twerp.html 215-my-birding-credentials-have-been-demolished-again.html 357-the-king-of-bryher-surely-a-lost-poem-by-william-topaz-mcgonagall-the- worlds-worst-poet.html
