SINDASOX 256 Posted July 25, 2009 Report Share Posted July 25, 2009 Used to love reading his books, it was like if you were there with him up in them remote Scottish Highlands, him and Moobli, he used to walk for hours to get to an eagle eyrie, sit and watch them all day and then make the long trek back home to his cottage.

I agree both very similar books indeed.I also really enjoyed the wildcat books.I found last wild place a little on the 'Airy fairy'side if you know what i mean.Still good book mind.
