  No need to travel halfway round the globe to spot iconic wildlife – it's right here on our doorstep in the UK and Steve Wright, keen amateur naturalist, travels from the Isle of Man to Norfolk, to the Orkneys, Northern Ireland and everywhere in-between on his various short holiday expeditions, clutching his specific wildlife wish-list for each trip.  
  The result is an inspiring and engaging diary of his personal encounters with white-tailed eagles, otters, bottlenose dolphins, fulmars, puffins, osprey, sand lizards, even red-necked wallabies. And the characters he meets on the way. He hears snipe drumming, watches a shrew in Wales, admires pilot whales off Lewis.  
  Steve's wildlife travel diaries give excellent practical tips, such as bird-hide etiquette, how to identify birds on the wing, how to consult local wildlife rangers about what might be spotted on each outing and where to find that species.  
  But most importantly his highly-readable wildlife travels are a call to others to book themselves in to pubs and small hotels the length and breadth of Britain and follow his example, for a series of fun British wildlife safaris.

  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Inglourious Basterds, directed by Quentin Tarantino, is a World War II film that blends historical fiction with intense action. It follows two main storylines: one about a group of Jewish-American soldiers, led by Lieutenant Aldo Raine, who aim to instill fear in the Nazi army by killing and scalping German soldiers. The other centers on Shosanna Dreyfus, a young Jewish woman who seeks revenge on the Nazis after they kill her family. Tarantino uses themes of vengeance, justice, and survival, blending intense violence with sharp dialogue and dark humor in a unique and stylized narrative. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Inglourious Basterds marked the first Quentin Tarantino film to win an Oscar for acting, with Christoph Waltz receiving the Best Supporting Actor award. Waltz went on to win another Oscar for his role in Django Unchained (2012).” 
    
  “In a roundtable discussion with Brad Pitt, Tarantino revealed that Til Schweiger, who was born and raised in Germany, had always refused to wear a Nazi uniform for a film. However, Schweiger agreed to do so on the condition that he could kill a Nazi in every scene where he wore one.” 
    
  “Tarantino spent nearly a decade working on the script for Inglourious Basterds.” 
    
  “Colonel Hans Landa, played by Christoph Waltz, speaks the most languages in the film, including English, French, German, and Italian.”

  Ever wondered when board games got so good? 
   
  The last forty years have seen nothing short of a revolution in the world of tabletop games. No longer synonymous with family arguments over a game of Monopoly or Trivial Pursuit, board games and the once niche hobby of tabletop gaming have moved into the mainstream over the last four decades, with modern  
  classics like CATAN, Ticket to Ride and Carcassonne becoming established household names. 
   
  In this informative and entertaining volume, this revolution in tabletop gaming is revealed and reviewed by one of the most knowledgeable commentators there is.  
   
  James Wallis explores the evolving world of board games through the lens of the Spiel des Jahres, Germany’s prestigious Game of the Year award, looking at a host of past winners catapulted to worldwide popularity, once lauded games now sadly forgotten, and a few popular hits that somehow missed out. Alongside this, Wallis  
  expertly chronicles the increasing sophistication in the design of modern board games and their ever growing variety.  
   
  Everybody Wins is a book for anyone who loves games, wonders what all the fuss is about or just wants to know what to play next—the essential, hugely readable study of the modern board game.

  I hope that you will find the information helpful, useful and profitable. 
  The issues in this ebook concern various aspects of protecting your family and home and related ideas is organised into 15 chapters of about 500-600 words each. 
  I hope that it will interest those who are concerned about their safety.  
  There has always been an unacceptable amount of burglary. It is such a harrowing experience to be burgled. People are forced to accept that they are not safe even in their own homes. 
  In the days of larger families, it was not easy for the burglar. There was always someone at home, and usually several people. Burglars would be detected and easily overpowered. Nowadays, on the other hand, many people live alone, and many of those are elderly baby-boomers. 
  It can induce a permanent state of worry and anxiety. 
  One way around this, is to implement a home security system. They are actually quiet affordable now too. A decent home security system, coupled with friendly neighbours, is an affordable solution. 
  As an added bonus, I am granting you permission to use the content on your own website or in your own blogs and newsletter, although it is better if you rewrite them in your own words first. 
  In fact, the only right that you do not have is to resell or give away the book as it was delivered to you.
