New magazine

I was intrigued by a magazine title I saw in WHSmith this morning. I didn’t have time to investigate it fully, so I searched the Internet when I got home and found their website: http://www.stringingmagazine.com/

Sounds interesting - this is the latest edition:

I've been approached to do an article on getting Merlin accepted...

The Leicester Llama said...

My advice would be to move to a county where it's not a description species.

beast said...

John & Andy...

Never realized that Merlin was a 'we need a description' species...until i juz got an email from Mr.Lister!
Cud you please tell me wot a Merlin looks like so's i can cobble together sumat convincing? They hover don't they....?

[In all seriousness...i haven't bothered sending description of Stoughton wizard falcon in yet....i was tempted to juz reply 'it's a fucking merlin...wot else do you want to know..? Guess i'd better do a proper description though...right..where's me 'observers book o birds'...]

[pps. Andy...another topic...do you think the credit crunch is affecting the 'porn fairy'? Haven't found a single wank mag on me local patch lately...times must be 'hard'].....

Beast,
That last comment reminds me of a time I was at Eyebrook (mid-winter pratincole??!!) when one of our lads found a stash of pornos under a hedge. Quick as a flash Britain's top twitcher was in there with a cash offer for the collection of Fiesta and Razzle.

Happy mammaries!!!

It could be that the porn fairy has been made redundant, or it could just be the effect of widely and freely available porn on the internet. Does anyone actually buy wank mags any more?!! (Apart from John of course).

Re your question about how to identify Merlins, I'm currently preparing an ID article, which will appear some time this week...

beast said...

Andy...maybe you're right about internet filth putting the 'porn fairy' out of business...fuckin shame if thats true though........many a boring day 'in the field' was enlivened by the discovery of a wank mag! Some say the 'porn fairy' doesn't exist....a bit like Santa...[but wearing suzzies and a strap on dildo]. Actually [in some sort of reality] the 'porn fairy' looks more like a satanic version of the 'easter bunny'....[very similar to the one in 'Donnie Darko'].

Marcus......i recall that hidden stash of mags at ebr.....did the 'finder' write up a full report on the discovery?

Andy...look forward to reading yer id article on Merlins...[you wanna get in touch with that guy who wuz at ebr the other day who was calling a buzzard an osprey...sure he'd put you on the right track]!

Beast,

The porn fairy is still alive, when Dave Gray, Skev and I were photographing the Black-billed Dipper in Yorks this year I nipped into a copse for a slash and stumbled on a stash of, albeit, poor quality grumble.

Andy,
What do you mean I still buy porn mags, I have no idea how that filth got into my bag for Shetland. I don't know if I'm being libelled or slandered but I will be speaking to my briefs... crusty briefs at that!

beast said...

John....

I am relieved [not in that way] that the porn fairy is still alive and hopping about the countryside. Guess he has a lot of ground to cover so maybe he'll 'drop a load' on my local patch soon.

[Like you're phrase 'stumbled on a stash'!....is that a euphemism for what the porn fairy and his 4skin followers do on a regular basis]?

Beast wishes........

ps.[apologies Andy for turning this thread into complete and utter filth]!

The Drunkbirder said...

Beast, stumbled on a stash is no euphonium whatsoever. It was just what was in my head as I wrote. Now Clit Lit of Left-handed Literature is a different matter.

The Drunkbirder said...

I was thinking about the porn situation and wondered if the recent dearth of porn left in the countryside is as a result of deteriorating levels of public decency. I am wondering now whether when a young boy 'stumbles upon a stash' he thinks bloody hell what a find and takes it home. We all know that porn in the community is meant to be enjoyed and then returned to its roost site to allow others the same level of enjoyment.

The rise in the practice of 'dogging' may also be responsible for the decline of porn too.

On another wavelength, I always smile as I drive through Earl Shilton as I well remember it from a 1980s Razzle when they featured the Girls of Earl Shilton. Maybe we could start a Justin Lee Collins style documentary to re-unite the 'Girls of Earl Shilton.' Anyone got a camcorder?

beast said...

John...

Guess they're are several reasons why wankmags are on the decline...

I do think that a thorough survey of the British countryside is in order. Only decent[indecent] observers should be employed to carry out this vital work. Those observers with a 'trained purple eye' that can distinguish [at a distance] the difference between genuine porn and just a discarded copy of the Radio Times or Birdwatch.

Unfortunately, these days, there's more chance of me stepping on a dogturd on me localpatch ...rather than 'stumblin over a stash'..

[fuckin dogwalkers...fuckin hate 'em..."ahhh...he's pleased to see you...look at my little fuckin hairy turd monster drooling all down yer pants...he just wants to play".....
...I'll play with you're fuckin hairy mutt Miss's....by kicking the twat into next week if you don't stop it humpin my leg]!!

ps....i don't mind dogs...juz some of they're owners.....

[New magazine Andy..'Turdwatch' or has it already been done]?

Nice! Better than anything we managed I think!
