Fair point but put the same scrutiny on the media. Only today we have a Guardian columnist dropping they have a friend with a ski chalet. you've all got it stitched up.

From the right side of the Pennines and the right side of the Tees, I would generally agree with these observations. I had a different peak time, six of eleven YLG sightings this year were in October. Caspian sightings much more than YLG, 28v11, 22 of them since September.
