Been going to ask for ages do any of the members ever go because no one ever posts any sightings from there? It must be ten years since my last visit I always enjoyed going despite parking area a bit rough. Had lots of butterflies etc and decent birds at right time of year like hobby. It was rare that I did the circuit but enjoyed the hide at Steve's pond (not sure I got right name), its a shame no one posts from there.

I remember once contacting LWT asking if they could erect a bench for visitors to sit on as at that time there was no place to sit and maybe still isn't. At that time the loggers were taking quite a few trees down so I suggested making benches from the logs, I cannot remember the exact reason they gave me but at the time I thought it was pathetic. Further visits I did after that I took a wee folding stool which came in handy but added to the weight I had to carry.  When I was going to MSQ regular there were benches to cobble dogs with, I could almost sit down every hundred yards!

Anyway if anyone goes post on the forum so I can see if owt has changed.

Cheers
John
