.......as Chris says, " The owls didn't appear until just after 16.30". With sunset being at 16.00, another 5 minutes and we would have needed night-vision goggles. However, the SEOs delivered just in time. :D =D>

Well you know what they say Hugh - if you are bored and lonely then calling a meeting is the practical alternative to work (or in this case enjoying yourself)
