2. BOBRON'S EDITORIAL. Hello again. Welcome to the Spring 1975 Bulletin. This winter has been quite remarkably fine and mild, so far, and most naturalists have noted the early Spring Flowers, Trees in blossom and even a Slow Worm which should have been hibernating, out above ground on Boxing Day I We cannot help wondering whether this weather will have further effect and perhaps by the Autumn Bulletin we will know and understand a bit more. If your special interest has been affected at all by the weather, let us know, as we hope to include a special report in our next issue. Two usual items of editorial: a) Please let us have more copy. This issue is a bit thin and we would like to hear from you. Write and tell us how awful we are if you like ! b) Please pay your subscription promptly - now £3-00 for ordinary members, reduced to £1-50 for family members and £l for students. Lastly, we wish you an interesting and fruitful Spring and Summer - see the enclosed programme card for list of meetings! Please come. You may even see us! End of Bobron.
