Could be one of the Eggar or fox moths. Maybe a female drinker, the wings look under developed to me. But these SBJs I find a nightmare to ID.

Uh oh :sulk:

Look what’s on my bench today. A couple are missing as they’re a bit battered. The one on the top left was made around 2006. Can’t believe it 20 years ago. It was my favourite until 2010 and it then got retired the handle used to be pure white on that.

Welcome to BcUK Serj.

I like that one, but why is there a rabbit wearing a coat in it? I changed mine too. The first one was in bright sunlight. Same tree different year.

He is getting on a bit. It’s easy to forget certain numbers as you get old.

‘End of an Era’

He just messaged me. All is good. Just busy.

Harry Potter has one just like that.

That’s alright then. Cheers mate.

I used to have his email address, but it’s been a while and I can’t find it.

I was just going through some old posts and noticed he’s not been on here since Feb. Hope he’s OK.

Im a snake whisperer. although they never hear me. PoppyD is the wasp whisperer.

Perfect. Job done.

I have read his letters and books many many years ago. Probably around the same time I joined BcUK. I’ll have to dig them out again and revisit. There used to be a great thread on here too about someone replicating his kit.

Yeah. It is true. They do get wasted. It’s the most fun they’re ever going to have before their arrses are swatted through their heads. Give them a break. Sorry Pops. Seriously though, I rescued a wasp that had been in mead for ages. I pulled it out as I had done at least ten times that...
