Re: Another of our year turns up!

.... well, not quite our year.
I was at Bempton Cliffs today to see the seabirds and afterwards was in the RSPB shop having a long chat about Red Kites etc. with a young man who had recently started working there. The discussion ranged around, as is often the case when people get to my age, and it transpired that he is the son of Alden Phillips. Alden lived a couple of doors from me in Ingrow when we were kids and attended KBGS. I think he was in the '57 cohort.
Anyhow, if you're reading this, Alden, your son is a smashing young fellow - and a keen birder, which is always a plus.

Don't think that 'Ollie' (Beak) as Stuart Bird and his brother (David) used to refer to him, visits the site but I've copied him in. Both he and Anne will be pleased to hear that he's doing well.
