The gulls we are looking for.

 With the car in intensive care for possibly 2 weeks and struggling to get a hire care with none available, which is surprising at £1,000 for 2 weeks, its just been another slope around Queensbury with nothing to report.
           Just to keep the ball rolling I,ve put together some previously seen special gulls which is what we are searching for at the moment, or at least the birders that are interested in gulls, which doesnt amount to many, and scrolling through 2000 + gulls in Cullingworth fields I can understand why.
             Got the bus to Halifax today which cost £ 3.50 each one way. A strange bus with the door at the front and no conductor. The last bus I used had the an open door at the back and a clippy with a ticket machine.
