So I dug this up, lol I passed year 2 fine at plumpton and applied for big boys uni at brighton and I am now completing and honours degree in ecology, it is one of the hardest things I have ever done and I sadly have to say it has been an uphill battle, I am not failing but I am averaging 50% which at this moment in time I am content with, three of my friends have dropped out , its not really what I want to do but I am going to battle on and complete it, I finish in about 5 weeks and I am currently writing my disseration which is really difficult. It has not been a pleasent experience and Now I hope to get a job, save up my money and go and do the FGASA in south africa that is the plan so watch this space

Thanks for the kind words penny.

Hello Dan - I can't believe you are almost ready to start your final year at uni.  Where has the time gone?!!!   I am really pleased you have found your vocation and wish you every happiness and success in  the future.

Hey everyone I only have a month left on my course until I do the full degree next year on ecology, its gone so quickly, I have just come back from africa so that thread will take up more of my time now, but feel free to ask me any questions and stuff

Swans are magnificent creatures so beautiful.

Yesterday at WRAS we had a jackdaw bought in with a limp wing so It was sent to the vets with suspected fracture, the vet sent it back saying it was fine nothing wrong with the bird, the poor thing could not lift one of its wings, so I do not think that vet wasvery good1

We had a swan in at the petting zoo once.   He was an old fellow who was taken out of Lost Lagoon because he was beating up younger swans.   But he was totally gentle with us and when you shooed him into the barn he would just waddle in with his big feet flapping.  So sweet. 

I am indeed And today I learnt how to handle and restrain a swan today it was awesome.

I hadn't seen your posts from last months.   Boy, you're doing well.   If I had it all to do again, I would do exactly what you're doing.  You lucky boy!
