I forgot to mention yesterday that the Boulmer inland sea has now dwindled. In fact its gone. Woe is me....It looks like the five a side pitch will be resurrected in the summer...all you patchers with Coots...damn you all...
Coot's eh!! Come and visit Somerset ... Cheddar Resevoir, regularly have 2,3-4,000 coots overwintering there.... one of them has a strong Northumbrian accent, shall I send it back? http://pub13.bravenet.com/forum/1065729998/show/733958

ReplyDeleteLook on the bright side, you might get a game if you take your boots down - I know how you are well known for sporting prowess!

ReplyDeleteCoots I wish, I had just 1 last year. Such rareties!
ReplyDeleteWe do get Coots in Northumberland, but not at Boulmer. Nothing fresh to swim on...
ReplyDeleteBR - Send it in via Boulmer please...get it to bring a Pochard too.
can I have a go on your coot when your finished with it BB? Cheers!
ReplyDeleteNo bother Mark. If it arrives I'll send it recorded delivery ( or pigeon post?)
ReplyDeleteOr British 'Rail'...
ReplyDeleteA Coot is a rarity at St Mary's so don't worry Stu your not the only one who misses out.
