I was the 11th to join the Forum in 2004 and there are now 345 people shown on the members list. Over the years there have been a fair number who have made multiple contributions to the Forum but have now completely disappeared off the radar. I know Blogs, Twitter, Facebook, Birdline etc. have taken their toll but if they are still members I wonder why they no longer share their sightings with the rest of the Membership on the Forum?

Hello Stuart,

My excuse is I rarely go out unless its to Leeds for treatment and most times I do put a report on non-lincs section as I have one to put on soon, going yesterday. Most days I haven't the energy or the inclination to drive, some may call me lazy but I don't really give two hoots, no pun intended :lol: . I'm happy watching the assorted birds in my garden especially of late.

I'm not into tweeter etc. I sometimes don't come on the computer for two weeks, just can't be bothered.

Watched the Tour de France all days bar the time trials, even watched it on holiday :lol: the weather was crap two days. Also now an avid spotter of the ISS and to be honest the few mins I see it gives me more excitement than spending hours on end in the car waiting for summat decent to fly over!

I still enjoy going to local patch. Enjoyed my visit to Blacktoft few weeks ago to see the celebritys and got some pics.

That's my excuse =D>

Cheers

John

Hi John,
No apologies needed - you are still a regular contributor. Forgive my ignorance but what is the ISS?
Regards,
Stuart

ISS is the internAtional space station,and I was a fairly regular forum poster,I moved to mid wales(where the birding is frankly rubbish!),I keep a regular eye on the forum but obviously don't post,but looking at moving back up here,if I do I'll start posting again.
