Thanks, I stand corrected, it always amuses me to read the different slants people take on what they see or hear and in this case it seems I must have misunderstood and went down a back alley but at least now he has 'his land' he can now put a couple of digits up to the ones who refused him permission to go on 'their' land |

Sad news indeed, he was one of Johnny's best chums by the looks of it. |

We've had a look at his website and had a look in the gallery, I think in the one of him stood next to Bambi and holding the rescued buzzard, he looks very like Bobby Ball, I also came across the pic of two of his mates where he says he will never forget Tony Thorne and as the one I've seen called 'comb over' is at the front, it must be him. It's his land he built his first Badger assault course on ,
We have also ordered a couple of signed photos |

'ROCKING ALL OVER 'MY LAND' by STATUS QUO,
I GOT MY LAND by SONNIE AND CHER
SITTING ON A ROCK ON MY LAND by OTIS REDDING

That`s a shame stripee as it was partly about his visit to Wales to visit the red kite feeding station near Aberystwyth (spelling).Another enjoyable program from the legend. |

I just started watching it when the flipping phone rang, so I had to turn the sound down, I've recorded it so will have another look at it today before tonights episode, I really enjoyed what I saw of the Red Kites, my O.H. is a 'big trucker' and often goes to farms in Wales and he sometimes gets Buzzards flying along side his lorry in some of the remote areas, think it's something to do with the heat thermals it gives off |

We get loads of Red Kites round here, I've seen up to 8 at a time, although saying that I've not seen one in a little while. |

He is a lovely man, full of enthusiasm and a love of animals, people and life which affects all around him. Did you see him with those children? Education is so important!
Sometimes he may get it wrong. So what! Don't we all. God bless him and more power to his elbow.
Yes we are Johnny Kingdom fans in this house and love him and 'his land'.

Am I the only person who thinks he is a little too keen to make HIS LAND into some sort of theme park? I think he is wrecking the place. | | | |
