Anybody lost something at Stafford??

You have to make a MEAL out of everything you little WORM you

yes Karl I left 6 £1boxes it will be a while before I get back, you make use of them. I was collecting a white collard yuhine from Peter who very kindly gave me to replace one that died on my way back from Zwolle the previous week. I read about one of the lads got delayed going home by 2 hours. Well I left Dublin Sat.morning at 6am. in 18" of snow to catch a boat at 8am. it was delayed it didn't leave the dock till 3pm. we arrived at holyhead and couldn't dock with bad weather, we embarked at 8.30pm. got to the hotel at 11pm. to be told the bar was closed no night cap. Up 5.45am. down to show collected birds I had ordered rushed of to get 2pm boat got to Holyhead with time to spare to be told the boat was delayed for 5hours. but it was all worth it when I released the birds into the flights and sat back and enjoyed them. Foreign softbills are beautiful.

Hi Jerry, I've no use for them mate, so just let me know when you are over or somebody that can collect them for you. Failing that I can bring them to next Stafford etc. I can post them, but I feel the postage cost will outweigh their worth.

Sounds an horrendous journey mate! Still, like you say, it's all worth it for new softbills. I've kept the Yuhina's before.. lovely birds and still one of my favourites, it's just the price that puts me off them know
