Hi All
Thanks Jason it could well have been.
I am sorry to report that I can not put any more images up for a while as an out of control trailer took out the telegraph pole outside my house early Sunday morning. I am posting from my phone at the moment I did try to upload some images that way but it is not having it.
As soon as I am back on I will post the missing images on mass.
Regards
Richard

Your just making excuses mate- get your butt out and take some pics. Next you will be saying the dog ate your homework.

:naughty:The dog did eat my homework I couldn't help it if I coated in jam:p:)
Joking aside I am taking a group to the Farnes on the June 10th and the 11th so hopefully I might get a few images. Feel free to drop down if you and Chas are in the mood and you have any holidays left.
Regards
Rich
