Yes nice to see an old machine still working but surely you mean December 2010 unless your test train was fitted with a flux capacitor. :lol:

Sorry about the wrong year shown, should read 2010 :doh: . Yes, I did wonder about that sheep myself, (cues jokes about sheep, wellies etc). Glad you liked the pictures. Hopefully will start to sort out all my pics and will upload to this site. :)

Yes, thats the line Angus, lovely in the summer but very bleak in the winter. Stayed in Hythe last week and spent an enjoyable afternoon/evening sampling Hythes various pubs :thumbup: .
