Hi All

Last week i recd my copies of Bridkeeping the South African Way and to be honest i was a little dissapointed.

A mate of mine bought Part 1 which i saw when it was first released and i was quite interested in it which is why i thought i would buy the series.

Part 2 is quite boring just showing a snap shot of alot of species.

Part 3 is alot of the same footage from 1 & 2 with some new Aviary visits which i thought were a little dry and is probably only as good as Part 1.

I am sure that Eelco Meyers can produce something better.

Maybe i was hoping for something more than it was but is there any one else that agree's?

I am sure these guys can put a video together that contains details of Aviary visits.

Cheers
Luke
(Sorry - I hope i havnt put a downer on this, just a bit dissapointed)
