    I suspect Charles will make a fine King. He has already started showing signs that he is making the necessary changes.

    Which 10x42 binoculars are you using the most?

    Hi from London.

    I live in London and decided to take up bird watching as I have a terminal illness and wanted something to get me out and about that's peaceful and rewarding. Birding won. I bought myself some Canon 10x42 binoculars and the Collins book of british birds. So far i've enjoyed what i've...
