    Hi anyone who wants to join us for a amble around the pine woods/beach at Formby Point, Freshfields (just outside of Formby, Merseyside) we will be meeting at the main car park (beach end) at 12ish on Sunday 13th January

    It's £4.50 to park and there are toilets and a coffee van and the obligatory ice cream van

    It can be a short, longish or long walk depending on what you fancy,

    bring strong shoes, boots or wellies,

    must love the sound of an over enthusiastic terrier surrounded by her favourite trees, people and squirrels ;D :dog:
     
  2. I'm in and I'm sure the family will be too :)
     
  3. Can't make Sunday , but would have loved to go.
    Last time we went we saw a seal, great place.

  14. Sounds great, we're in! Understand the red squirrels are back again now?
     
  15. Yes!

    After really awful squirrel pox and not spotting a little furry for at least 4 years, we've seen a few now over the last few months and lots of evidence that they are spreading into all areas,

    they are at not the numbers they once were obviously and this generation are not used to people so they are very wary.

  17. Would love to come (never seen red squirrels) but a bit too far for us. Maybe when we get Hattie back we'll come over that side for a weekend then do it :) Have fun xx
     
  18. If I have started and finished my essay by then I shall come along... :) x

    Sounds like fun, sorry we can't make it

    Red squirrels are the native ones, aren't they? Grey squirrels are an imported pest (a bit like Aussies :D )
