Bizarrely LGRE's comments have come following the biggest deluge of American birds to hit the archipelago this century!!
Being intrepid in 2007!
21st September. Intrepid?
Apparently I'm intrepid! Not my words or the words of anyone that knows me but the words of LGRE who in his latest 'Scillies is rubbish these days' posting said "A few intrepids prefer the tranquility of Shetland or the Outer Hebrides in their quest for that dreamt-of find". Actually the reason that I go is because I hate the sight of hundreds of birders swarming over everything from Black Redstart* upwards. So with the swelling numbers of ex Scilly birders heading North next month Andy AKA The Leicester Llama and I have moved camp to the far north i.e. Unst. It's an experiment that might go hideously wrong - it might be a birding triumph. Whatever it is one thing is certain we won't have the crowds like last year - at one point there were at least eight of us watching the Issy Shrike ridiculous!

Not just 'intrepid' Mark, but 'an intrepid', demonstrating yet again that LGRE's mastery of the English language is so great that he isn't constrained by such trifling details as the difference between adjectives and nouns....
If being intrepid = being hungover then you're ok. Damn that Whisky, eh?
