And finally a merry Yuletide

It's Deja Vu for the two Dutchmen at the end of the table as someone else gets to lift the cup again!!!

Next year they are mine !!!!

After an initial out burst of pride, Sidney shamefully dumped the Randal Cup in the toliet of a well known local establishment.

Never took you for a Tescos Boy Slap ??

Despite being pipped at the post for FOTY Portly remains surprisingly upbeat

Would you let this man service your old boiler ????

Don't look up now for fecks sake

Poetic justice as Seymour is finally overcome by his own fumes !

What a pair of good looking Bast@ards

What me ?? OMG.........

The joy is untold as CR finds out he has received only 9 votes in SOTY

And the award for String of the Year goes to.....

2010-12-16T05:33:00.000-08:00

At a bumper turn-out for the annual Xmas curry, the usual suspects descended on the Himalaya and duely sampled their fine wares. As with most years we were joined by friends from the across the county, Seymour entertained with his musical arse and the first awards of the festive season were handed out.
Sadly this year saw the disgraceful use of tactical, and frankly irregular voting patterns that deprived argubly one of the finest strings, since 'that gull', the title of String of the Year. The marsh warbler had been the connoisseur's choice for the title following the withdrawl of the Kenfig bobolink, but in the end our very own Clive pipped the lot to the title with his superb rough-legged buzzard. Clive has been gunning for the title for some years and so it was with great pleasure that Clive took the cup for 2010. Clive's good humour in accepting the award was a credit to both himself and to Cardiff birding (a lesson that should be noted for the more humourless amongst you). His acceptance speech, although littered with considerable profanity was on the whole as full of shit as his rough-legged buzzard and was only really marred by Seymour's arse squeaks, Dogger passing out and crys of fix by all the rest of us. Either way, well done Clive.
Jeff 'the lens' Slocombe won the prize for Best Photographer of the Year prompting Mr Huffy-Pants Hinton to break away and form his own blog in the most childish moment of the evening. Jeff won the 'Einstein' and hopes to put this to good use next year when looking at terns at Eggy Nun. In an act of unparalled generosity, Jeff's acceptance speech (which was frankly shit on the whole), included the offer of lending the 'Einstein' to Barry next time he goes ringing. Richard Smith simply sulked for the remainder of the evening and called Jeff names behind his back which was pathetic but fair. I thought calling Jeff a 'massive gay boy' was going a bit far, but what can you do when you look like that bloke without the beard from Abba and you think playing the banjo is grown-up.
This year saw the first award of Murray the Pewter Pigeon for services to bird conservation in Glamorgan. Winning Murray is no mean feat and the competion for what is arguably one of the top prizes in birding was fierce. In the end it came down to two main contenders, and with little to seperate them in terms of waistbands the prize was decided by a pieathon. After 17 hours of continuous pie consumption, the freak insertion of a Cheese and Onion pastie resulted in a minor riot at Greggs and both competitors withdrew in protest at the attempted poisoning by a non-meat realated pastry encompassed snack. In the end we simply gave the award to everyone present at the illegal and disgusting flushing of the bobolink at Eglwys Nunydd. Any suggestion that the bobolink was flushed to death by 'those Cardiff bastards', was quickly dispelled when the bird was re-found at Kenfig Pool a few days later by Frank Dobson, a well known local bird finder of limited intelligence and disgusting personal hygiene. The county recorder, Idi Amin Gilmore was on hand to accept the award and gave a moving speech. With barely a dry eye amongst the birders sat in close proximity to Seymour, the Dogger had to be revivied with the use of one of Frank's socks and a final toast to absent friends brought the house down. Murray will be up for grabs next year so good luck.
Sidney Parsons won the award for best bird of the year. The Randal Trophy was presented and Sid's speech was translated by Jeff. Luckily Jeff managed to garner that Sid's 2010 had been a monumental year for him. Not only has Sid failed to find a yellow-browed warbler in 2010 but the realisation that the new coalition government might actually force him into getting a proper job has made all his hair fall out. Thankfully the Randal Trophy is large enough to cover his head and keep him dry if it rains on his new paper round. Well done Sid, we'll polish the cup and get it engraved for you. Then we'll give it to someone that actually appreciates it.

That just about wraps up the 2010 awards. A few more are yet to be decided but I'm sure we'll think of an excuse to wind someone up over Xmas (we usually do). Merry Xmas everyone.

with all the sadness and trauma going on in the world at the moment, it is worth while reflecting on the death of a very important person, which almost went unnoticed the other week. Larry LaPrise, the man who wrote `the hokey kokey` died peacefully at the age of 93. The most traumatic part for the family was getting him in the coffin, They put his left leg in , and then the fucking trouble started

Here we observe 'non desirable' types being fended off from entering holy ground by 'the sort of desirable type' for whom entry is allowed. Sid (not his real name), waits patiently with his blow pipe to shoot the intruder to death. Without any poison tree frogs to rub his dart on, Sid (not his real name) has rubbed the tip of his weapon on a girl from New Tredgars. The results were much the same.....monkey, tapir, Mathew Meehan (not his real name) all met the same end.
Clive stands guard to stop further intruders from entering the holy ground. Un beknown to him, Anh Dung Chie^'n Hung Tu`ng Squirrel, is sneaking up on him, armed only with a bag of rice and the weight of the North Cardiff people on his shoulders. Shortly after this shot was taken Clive was captured by the Viet Congdiff and is currently floating in a cage in the Bay waiting to play russian roulette with Nick Boing, leader of the resistance movement to unite the oppressed birders of Cardiff! This week a woodland, next week a paddy field is our mantra!

A Primary Teacher explains to her class that she is a Liverpool fan.

She asks her students to raise their hands if they too are Liverpool fans.

Everyone in the class raises their hand except one little girl.

The teacher looks at the girl with surprise and says, 'Mary, why didn't you raise your hand?'

'Because I'm not a Liverpool fan,' she replied.

The teacher, still shocked, asked, 'Well, if you are not a Liverpool fan, then who are you a fan of?'

'I am a Man Utd fan, and proud of it,' Mary replied.

The teacher could not believe her ears. 'Mary, why, pray tell, are you a Man Utd fan?'

'Because my mum is a Man Utd fan, and my dad is a Man Utd fan, so I'm a Man Utd fan too!'

'Well,' said the teacher in an obviously annoyed tone, 'that is no reason for you to be a Man Utd fan.

You don't have to be just like your parents all of the time… What if your mum was a prostitute and your dad was a drug addict, what would you be then?'

'Then,' Mary smiled, 'I'd be a Liverpool fan.

Police cordoned off Liverpool City Centre this morning when a suspicious object was discovered in a car.

Visiting the bright lights of the Metropolis took our friend 'Sid' by surprise,after jamming numerous pints of Brains SA down his gullet he is seen here quoting lines from Macbeth,he said to a number of CBC'ers "who does this cabbage remind you of"

Meriwether and Smudger discuss the menu,Meriwether is obviously not amused.

The great and the good of the Cardiff birding scene were seen out last night enjoying themselves at their annual Christmas curry at an exclusive location in Roath Park.

Awards to Glamorgan birdwatching were also on the menu and there were some surprises. Portly Leader was awarded 'String of the Year 2008' for his Bee-eater at Lavernock and Poopert Gerkins was awarded the coverted prize of 'Services to Local Conservation' for moving to Gwent. The Llancadle Wader won the 'Huge Parrot' Photo of the Year for his Garganey in flight at Cosmeston. Worst photo went to Maurice Mellons for his Glaucous Gull.

On the Blog, the best post went to Anon for 'Nantyfuckingdumplon' and the best response went to the GLB for his Audouin's Gull saga.

The Meriwether award for PC went to the Fairwater Goatherder for his Crunchygate and Young Ornithologist of the Year went to the Twitchmeister from Birders in Boxers!

You see we are a fair lot really.
