Winsford Soul

Just got home from a 4 hour stint hoping to see probably the rarest bird in the UK at the moment. A Blyths reed warbler. im not a twitcher and dont normally go chasing after birds so this is something way out of the ordinary for me but it was a once in life time chance and it was very near Pennington flash . I caught a slight glimpse of it in the brambles but no photograph. It's that rare people had travelled from Suffolk and the Midlands to see it. A picture of some of the twitchers. Steve

Pictures please Josep especially of the Orioles Steve

Andy. Goosander and Mandarin are quite common place these days mate. Even see Goosander on my local park lake at Bogart hole clough Steve

Exactly what I was going on about . Every record and his dog are a auction item these days. Steve

Young wimps 🤣

Just what we where talking about on Saturday night mate. Very choosey as to where I play out these days. Still tend to prefer nighters ( grumpy soul and Willington apart ) because in my opinion there's more of a chance to hear the lesser played stuff. Steve

Looks a stunning place Steve

Must admit that I done a video of Lou dancing to her favourite record on her recent big birthday. Only for her benefit and to show the kids n grandkids. First time for me and it was very early on in the night. Doubt that I would have done it later on when it was busy. To much respect for other soulies to invade there personal space. Steve

Proper nighter tune

The original release in let's say America makes it the original release in that country . If it's released in let's say Australia either before or after the American release its still a original first release in that country. Simple. Why do people try and complicate things Steve

I've always been fishing ,well since I was five. Brought up on ponds and canals in the north west. Steve Sorry about the off topic reply

What with a £4500 roach pole. 🤣 Steve

😎Don't know why 🤣🤣 🤣 Steve

John. I've no more likes left mate at moment. What camera did you end up with ? Steve

Partly. When someone with more money than sense who probably doesn't get out to venues or can be bothered looking buys a record for X amount because they want it doesn't necessarily mean that is the now going rate. Or when known big ticket collectors want a record the price suddenly increases by hundreds of pounds Minefield Steve

No need to apologise my friend Steve

Never raised mine. 120 over 80. perfect Steve

What's that got to do with the original post. ? Or have I missed the point somewhere Steve

No. I was to young. Steve

I've always been open to whatever was available UK, US, Australian, etc generally UK was better quality anyway Steve

You will have to post some of the pictures in the photography thread on here. I don't own a macro lens , I only have 3 lenses. 2 wildlife/ bird ones and a landscape one. Steve

That looks fabulous my friend Steve

16 metres of the finest carbon fibre which is what you pay for. There are more expensive and cheaper grades of carbon but the price reflects that. Steve PS. My latest camera lens is double that. Like everything in life, you get what you pay for

🤣🤣 Steve ( still 59 ) Smith

Yeah man 29 with 31 years experience, Thanks for the best wishes , will defo catch up with you both soon Steve. XX
