Podcast 95 - Last Visit To Elmley In My Taxi

stormcabbirds birding podcast

Show Notes

My London cab comes up to its 12th birthday, and due to London's strict emission laws, can no longer work as a taxi. I take it to Elmley & Sheppey for its last trip there. I also have a short visit to Crossness where I talk about budget camera covers, how to rescue a wireless mic that was put in the washing machine, and other bits & pieces.
