That's exactly why I've not added birds and fish Anj - there are just so many, and yes, they will be future reference lists on both of them. Let's face it, I have to keep list-making somehow!!!!:rotfl: In my (and your) defence, I do spend quite a lot of time researching species (I'm making a database for my kids) so I can create the best resource I can!

Keep checking back over the previous letters as I keep editing my list when I find something new!

And keep pulling me up! How can I set ground-rules if I don't follow them myself!:blush: It's nice to know that someone is taking so much notice. :magnify:
