Valerie's funeral went as these things do...but it was a fitting tribute and celebration of her life. Afterwards there was a champagne reception in a gastro pub where the champagne did flow and the food was great.We also were able to have a laugh which was what Valerie would have wanted. Her daughter thought Valerie would have been furious to have missed it! So true. What was good was it brought a lot of people together and we are arranging other drinks and meals.Thank you Valerie.


I have been able to do a couple of fairly local trips out to finally catch up on Spotted redshank and Green Sandpipers and a lovely White winged Black Tern at Rye. Sussex being the new Norfolk!
