Here we are... looking north from the Muchalls/Newtonhill patch, to Aberdeen, where the crinkly coast meets the smooooth coast.

My adventures in the (drum roll)... World of Birds! Clash! As nobody has been asking, I'll explain. George Bristow was a taxidermist at the hub of the Hastings Rarities scandal. From 1896 to 1939, hundreds of rare birds passed through his shop in St Leonards-on-Sea which he claimed were locally killed. They were later shown to be fraudulent. I'd like to think that at the back of his shop was a time machine linked to a freezer in another dimension, full of dead birds. You read it here first.
About Me
- Martin
- My name is Martin. I have one wife, Diane, who drinks wine. Between us, we have two children who eat money and are old enough to read now... so I have to say what joyful and fulfilling darlings they are! Don't be fooled, I'm much less boorish and opinionated than you'd think.

That's Belted Kingfisher country that is...
Yes - Royal Deeside, home of inbred royalty and Belted Kingfishers. The evening the news of that bird broke I was due to be flying out of Aberdeen at 12 next day, and had nightmares of having to spend the morning racing up and down the River Dee against the clock. I was a very happy chap when it showed at dawn.
Me too!
