absolutely **** all. I went on the Autumnwatch message board looking for a lead to post something there but i had to log off again without leaving anything before the level of inanity addled my brain.

Hi Scouser,

Have there been any replies ?

Have just left a question on the bbc breathing spaces link on autumnwatch asking if the beeb are going to make a breathing space for the wildlife disturbed by the Media city development and mentioning the use of the falconers. Will post any replies

Update: There has been more correspondence with BBC & Peel Holdings regarding this matter, & the Salford Star magazine with a feature on North Wharf should be out next week......more info soon..........
