In the last couple of weeks, I seem to have been all over the country and I've just uploaded a whole raft of pictures ... with the addition of accommodation to my "brief" this year, I'm collecting a whole load of Wiltshire snaps to use the very best on our new sites, and you'll find much of the new raw material in the wiki - pictures on the Imber ranges, Swindon's Railway history, Shear Water at Longleat and Castle Combe.


I never cease to wonder at the beauty in Wiltshire - I came across Shear Water pictured above quite by accident last Autumn when we went on the vintage bus running day from Warminster and took the service up to Horningsham, behind the Longleat Estate. I swore I would go back.

I've travelled further afield too - you'll find new pictures on Oban, Mull and Iona, The Potteries, Linlithgow, Bo'ness, Perthshire, the Worth Valley, Halifax, the Penines, Beeston Castle Manchester and Moffat.

The picture to the right of this text was taken last Monday evening an Dunbeg, near Oban in the West Highlands. A great series of sunset pictures were taken that glorious evening and it's been very hard to know which one to select and post here!



Phew! Thank goodness I'm home based for the next week or so!
