Hmm, my only experience of the Scottish borders bit of your fair county is when I did the Pennine Way as a raw prawn 18 year old in 1990.
Last Aug' though the missus and I stayed a few days at Beadnell and explored the coast (lovely), Lindisfarne and the countryside of the 'wild cattle'. All cracking landscapes.
I remember when I got my first bied one accepted I was chuffed. So go on give it a try as long as you name them correctly and they meet the size yours should be accepted no probs. Barbara
Hi, did you watch Springwatch tonight? if so , when Bill was showing a clip of a foreign bird new to Britain, do you have any idea what it could be, he did mention it wasn't little egret!
