No botty spanking at all, everyone feel free to add to the thread. Blakey, the original poster, has agreed. :thumb:

Hi Goose

I have got these two, they are not recent i have to say, i took them about Oct 09 just before my very good freind Ian ( 100% RHINOS ) went to live in Oz, he is the guy 5th from the left sideways on to the camera with his son ( Galaxy100 ) to the right who is also a very good freind. :thumb:
Hope they are ok.

Best rgds

Think this flashearth link should show the lay-by. The spot the picture was taken from is just to the south east.....
