Have I missed something? Looks very nice, will wait for the postings. I suppose the High Court matters in london have taken up everyone's spare time.

Having just gone back to the previous topic and seen a discussion about whales, FYI, Brighton is having another "Whalefest" on 15th and 16th March, small extract frm the website below ...... Just thought one or two of you peregrinos out there might like to know :) I'll shut up now.<br /><br />Brighton will be taken over by life-sized whales and dolphins this March as the world’s largest whale festival ‘WhaleFest’ visits the city for the third time. And there is no better opportunity to rub shoulders with giants than at this family-friendly event.<br /> <br />WhaleFest takes place on Saturday 15th and Sunday 16th March in the exhibition rooms of the Hilton Brighton Metropole. Here, thousands of people will come face to face with replica whales and dolphins, take virtual whale watching trips indoors, and immerse themselves in 360° submarine adventures.<br /> <br />Guest speakers at the event include celebrity presenter Gok Wan, BBC Deadly 60’s Steve Backshall, BBC Coast’s Miranda Krestovnikoff, and the makers of TV’s ‘Spy in the Pod’. The event also features some of the world’s leading experts on whales and dolphins, including ‘The Woman Who Swims With Killer Whales’ Ingrid Visser, Sam Berg from the movie BlackFish, and actress Virginia McKenna OBE.<br />Sue Hetheringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13083609959430781367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-19868565587934585512014-02-23T09:34:01.084+00:002014-02-23T09:34:01.084+00:0009:30 Sun 23/2/14 Nobody home on camera 1 view but...09:30 Sun 23/2/14 Nobody home on camera 1 view but some very fresh prey remains on the scrape.Sue Hetheringtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13083609959430781367noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-517644049991406941.post-87426894511337269312014-02-21T23:04:02.526+00:002014-02-21T23:04:02.526+00:00What great news about Rolls-Royce!

I don't know who actually owns Cathedral Green but I'm wondering if there's any way that RR could build something there as a sort of "peregrine visitor centre" for when the watchpoints occur. As an occasional volunteer, we do have fairly basic facilities for storing the kit and only have the big tree to huddle under if the weather turns wet!
