The two weeks in Lesvos was great - thanks for arranging it John. Keith and I had a wonderful time, and enjoyed the company of yourself and Martin. Look forward to reading the report, then posting the alternative one!

We have some reasonable photos too, one of a slightly portly gent doing the hokey-cokey on the streets of Molyvos, but he probably wouldn't want me to post that one!!

And thank you for the occasional loan of your lens, and the Bee-eater and Crested Lark chase!!

85 in a 70 would you believe.

What do you mean struggled, it's a fast motor.

Your welcome Diane. It was a cracking fortnight wasn't it. Probably one of the best birding holidays I have been on. Certainly on a par with my trip to Turkey last year.

Regarding the photo of me. It looks more like a reather effiminate dance than the hokey cokey.

I have just about finished all the photos now. I am going to post a few on here tonight then work on my website tomorrow.

downhill with the wind behind you maybe - mind you I was trying to keep up with boddie who was moving at mach 3 in his fighter plane cunningly disguised as a merc.

foot flat down in 5th gave me about 75mph and cornering like a hippo on ice

I've been going through mine - I have a few keepers, which is a bit disappointing, but I didn't expect miracles given my equipment - photographic, that is.
