Hi My name is Malcolm Johnson. Iwas born in Wragby and still live there 70 years later. Living in the country my wife and I have always had an interest in Nature and particularly Birds though our interest rarely went further than walking in the countryside and watching our garden visitors. However since retiring we have visited many Nature Reserves and have been fortunate to see several of the Rarer Birds, and managed to photograph some of them. During the last year we have become almost adicted to Birds and we try to go out at least once a week to further our interest. And Stuart, I don't consider myself to be a Twitcher, though I do hold my hand up to running a few lists. I realised that I was spending more and more time on the LBC site and felt that it was time to join myself up. So, if you will have me. I will look forward to meeting some of you. Malcolm. |

Alastair Certainly was. My Father worked for a coal company based in Wragby Station Yard. Can remember on a number of occasions riding on the footplate of the train whilst it shunted waggons into the coal yard. Malcolm. |
