Not that I know of. It's apparently more common "up north" (my =20
grandfather came from Yorkshire, Bront=EB country). Some distant =20
relatives emigrated to New Zealand.

Well, I'm looking forward to it, but don't expect much from me.

I don't know if it made it into the world news, but we had our first =20
wild brown bear in the Bavarian Alps this summer. The first in a  =20
hundred and something years. It had apparently come from some Italian =20=

(South Tyrolean) renaturalisation program, and strolled right over =20
the Alps to Bavaria.

Where we shot it.

OK, it was behaving "inappropriately" killing sheep, wandering into =20
towns etc. and there was a feeble effort to catch it. But still.


About those adapters, any comments on EOS adapters? I've heard of =20
Novoflex (150 EUR) and CameraQuest (175 $) Then on Ebay I see Chinese =20=

made (Skink?) adapters for 22 EUR.
