Your probably right but I remember way back in 2002 when the other site I was in seemed bereft of new members. In fact come the Birdfair in August 2003 we had a concerted effort to smash through the 3,000 barrier. They were quite a few hundred short at the time (that was a year on from when it first started). Now the membership has gone crazy.

This site might not flourish quite so quickly but don't dispel the power of the word of mouth. I know I promote the site (as I do the other) wherever I am. If everyone continually did that you would be surprised how quickly this site could build. Don't forget there are 50,000,000 potential members out there.

There are not many sites dealing with Britain only, and even less that are as professional as this one, so you may do better than you think once the news gets out.
