Yeah, nice quote about the labels (I think there was a programme about that group on last night's tv?)
Anyway my other thought
Just been to Norfolk and indulged in a bit of birdwatching. It was like meditation, I hadn't felt so relaxed in I don't know how long. Was with an ex-twitcher. To those who don't know, twitchers will travel hundreds of miles having heard a rumour that some rare bird has dropped by. I'm not going to start a comparison of list-ticking twitchers with megaraks (probably untrue)
BUT
What connects 99.9% of twitchers, trainspotters and "megaraks"?
They are men.
From this you can draw your own conclusions. But whatever, I think this is another reason why I don't feel comfortable with the term and certainly don't want it applied to myself. Being a girl and that.
