Re: binoculars needed for Syrian birder

 Re My request for binoculars for Ahmad Aidek - four pairs offered!

Many thanks to the following people who have very kindly donated binoculars to send to Ahmad Aidek, SSCW, Damascus. All very much appreciated. 

Steve from NatureQuest, formerly based in the Old Market in Aberystwyth, contacted me last night and offered a brand new pair of 8X32 armour plated, nitrogen filled binoculars. Extremely generous - thank you NatureQuest. 

Dave Taylor phoned while I was driving up to Aber to collect the above bins to say he had two used pairs - now collected.

Finally, Jeremy Moore has just offered a used pair of 10X42 bins surplus to requirements which I'll pick up in Aber tomorrow.

Again, many thanks for helping out. All going to a good cause.
