I did tell you all we were heading Southwards to Dorset for part of the weekend. We camped just outside Wareham (a regular site for us) within striking distance of RSPB Arne. We normally try and visit in early Spring so we can see Dartford Warblers so we knew this would be a different experience. Stonechats kept popping up everywhere and saw a Charm of 100+ Goldfinches.. We were really impressed by the design of the new hide on the reserve. Plenty of impressive waders including Avocets and one Great White Egret (we saw plenty of Little Egrets as well).

Sadly my team the Mighty Hatters paid the penalty for several missed chances against top of the table Bournemouth.  We are playing some good attacking football despite a significant injury list. We need to win our games this week.

This afternoon took part in a play reading of my friend Brian’s dark play heavily influenced by Under Milk Wood but based on our part of the Severn. The plan is do a Community Plan next Easter time Watch this space!
