I stumbled across this site whilst looking for something else.

Thats an amazing site Peter………..the first section is all about my old stamping ground in the North West but at the very bottom there are a whole series of sub sections…..including the NRM and Didcot hours of browsing…….what with this and the Six Nations and the Winter Olympics when will I get any modelling done?

sorry to highjack but I visited ravenglass and took a ride February 2013.  Amazing scenery and also managed to see a few red Kites flying around.
