APRIL WEATHER ... Note the superb white - banded shirt Jim is wearing. To get one you apparently have to fall off your bike and break your collarbone
- the stripes being medical strapping!! Since a news page does
not have room for several family generations ( hence the picture is a little squeezed), by way of thanks for contributions to the site we have included a better copy of the photo - Click right here. Nature Still Abounds.... A couple of trips to the Deliana gorge and surrounding area also produced further good finds - until, adding our bounty to last years trips (Omalos and the
Rodopos peninsulla as far as Dyktynna included) we now have something like 3500plus pictures in our Flora and Fauna picture banks. When are we going to get some out? We have already started by adding another two pages (3 & 4) to the flower gallery. That maybe only another 24 new pictures but we think that you will like the quality..... If you have been before start at page three. Link to Gallery. That book has beautiful illustrations, but my butterflies won't keep still. How do they do that...? However, we have managed to train a lizard to pose for photo-shoots (really), our preying mantis tend not to move too quickly when walking and our larger moths (some as big as large butterflies) will keep perfectly still if not disturbed. Nor have we been neglecting other parts of the site - book reviews have been seriously disrupted - first by my own illness, then by the illness of David Smith's wife Valerie (Both now mended!!). Two cures and an additional team member later (Ann Lisney) should have the book reviews rolling by the next edition of CVNews - Just one example. (More News on Ann in that issue - and hopefully a photo!). |
NEW TV DOCUMENTARY...
_______________ To our visitors who have taken the time to tell us that they have found our site enjoyable/ informative/ helpful/ or otherwise complimented the site - very many thanks. We are trying very hard and it's really good to know that you like it". Besides, my wife notes that many of you are ladies! Please don't stop!! |

In the News... And whilst courts do not automatically find people guilty as charged the possibility of the experience or perhaps being found guilty of a lesser charge must be, without question, absolutely devastating.. |
Well, that's about it for now.....
