St Govern's is a very strange place. It felt wierd driving through an army firing range with bombs & machine gun fire in the background.


The favourite place had to be the Scottish Highlands. I never expected such beauty.

Cheers bibio. Rhosneigr was taken by my missus, quite surprised she's not noticed the orb. Croyde is also her favourite place. I still say that you can't beat the Isle of man, such a wonderful place, we went twice

It was awesome, such a pity that it had to end. I have about 2000 pictures of the trip
