    What trousers do you wear in the current UK cold snap?

    Indeed. My garden is only fit to plant rice in now.

    What trousers do you wear in the current UK cold snap?

    We have been down there a few times visiting family but it costs us a fortune. We could have a fortnight birding somewhere warm for the same price as a weekend in Devon :ROFLMAO:

    What trousers do you wear in the current UK cold snap?

    I wear M&S tights under my trousers. They work wonders - supposed to keep you warm when it's cold and cool when it's hot. It is good to be out and about at this time of year when everything's coming to life again. Good to blow the cobwebs away too but having just returned from Vietnam, it feels...

    What trousers do you wear in the current UK cold snap?

    I am like you and cover up well. No-one has been generous enough to have gifted me some Paramo trousers but I do have some good Rohan ones and avoid going out in extreme weather 😉 Sometimes it is definitely not good to be out! Good to know though that your birthday trousers are keeping you dry...

    What trousers do you wear in the current UK cold snap?

    I have only just come across this post but can add that my husband wears shorts and sandals with no socks wherever we are, whatever the weather!!! Yes, even up high in the Sichuan snow! His current shorts are from Decathlon if that's any use! :ROFLMAO:

    Are there companies which organize self-driven tours?

    Aratinga in Costa Rica are great. We have used Pieter twice now and have another tour booked round Christmas time. Extrely good prices too.

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in South East Africa

    We went to the Cape Area in 2017 and our excellent and very enthusiastic guide recommended the south eastern area for our next trip which we finally got round to organising last year. It had always been on my Wish List to go to Kruger so I was really looking forward to this. Did it live up to my...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in Portugal. The Algarve. April 2023

    It was unseasonably hot when we were in Portugal - it should have been the breeding season but spring was early because of the drought and high temperatures so the breeding season was over! A lot of the birds were hiding during the day, apparently ;) Dave's book isn't recent of course so some...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in North west Argentina. September 2022

    I am surprised that neither Ricardo nor Mauricio responded to your enquiry as they are usually quick to respond. I hope you have a fantastic time in Argentina - I don't think I could manage 6 weeks continuous birding! There has been a change of government since we returned last year and the...

    Ann and Roland Go Birding in Uganda. June 2023

    We were missing Africa so decided to visit the areas of Uganda hadn't birded on our previous trip with Johnnie Kamugisha in 2015. We had stayed in touch with Johnnie and his lovely wife, Agnes, since then seeing them regularly at Bird Fair so he was the obvious choice.
