true Michael

when i finish my OBC editing stint i will have time on my hands and am seriously thinking about doing something along the same lines but it will have to be top quality and like Not BB will rely to a degree on contributions from birders .... Anyone who might be interested in helping out bear it in mind.... and start thinking of funny stuff!

I would have thought a trawl though ruffled feathers would be a good start, some brilliant stuff there.

NOT BB - relocated

Had a bit of discussion re Not BB lately, reactivating this thread after I posted that I'd put Vol I online. (then, comes the 9 Feb crash and suddently, as rare things will, most messages vanished)
Some people seemed happy about my putting I online, so I've just added much of Vol II - not yet complete, but bear with me: don't have computer files. (In time, hope to finish II, and move on to III-V; in time.)

Lest you're interested, links here:

NOT BB

Cheers,
Martin

Almost finished putting Vol III online; also images for IV and V (sometime, hope to add text).
Changed addresses, to: NOT BB

Brilliant! Not sure I get it all (being a wee nipper) but got the jist of most of it. Looked at vol. II as well which I hadn't seen before. I think I get the RPS Bored letter about wintering Sabine's Gull: is it meant to be by a particular person that still to this day writes unecessarily aggressive letters about seabirds? Spurnuda Triangle was awesome as well! Thanks Martin,

Tom

Hi Tom:

Glad a "wee nipper" can enjoy Not BB, so long after originally appeared.
Encourages me to keep on with finishing III, then text for IV and V - once my web host has recovered from major crash (fingers crossed). [Minutes after posting this, checked, and back online - phew; after 24hrs or more absence]
Not sure re seabird letters lately; but there was some correspondence between one person suggesting winter Sabine's Gull records in UK wrong [based partly on records in US as I recall]; another saying he'd seen them. Tis, tisn't; tis, tisn't ... went the letters, in rather entertaining fashion for the rest of us, till correspondence closed.

Cheers,
Martin

Thanks for putting them up, just read the first one (one at a time) and still funny despite not having birded seriously for long. Look forward to the rest.
