Good luck with finding a twitch and book sales. You'll almost be there for
the start of the Scilly Season. I certainly remember the big twitches in the
UK. My biggest experience and perhaps claim to fame was twitching the
Golden-Winged Warbler that turned up in Kent in a supermarket car park of
all places back in the late 80's! It was a good job I got a day off from the
boss as I and a number of others were pictured on the front page of the
Telegraph! From memory a few thousand turned up for this event over the
following days.

Heard you on the radio - always good to hear someone promoting what we do,
even though few understand!

Cheers
Simon.
