Subbuteo: based in the village of Hadlow near Tonbridge in the Low Weald of Kent, Southeast of England, United Kingdom; Having changed gear from full-time to part-time work, I'm going to try to do some blogs along the lines of some of the existing fantastic ones that seem to be a Kent speciality. Main areas will be trees, plants, birds and insects, and general wildlife issues!
