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.

the decline has started,or just say 'birding,binoculars are for pussys'
I did that once, but I was in Turkey and had climbed Demirkazik for Snowcocks in the dark trying not to get eaten by Anatolian Shepherd Dogs. As light dawned I reached for the bins NOT THERE! A trek back down and they were still lying on my bunk. Needless to say, I still need Snowcock...
