    Now book your holiday to the Brecon Basin where you will contribute to my
    local economy. They even have a jazz festival so you can feel at home.

    Sorry, we're off to Hawaii. Looks nice though, maybe in future.

    I fully understand. I can imagine why you feel sorry about a holiday to
    somewhere like Hawaii. Under the thumb, I presume?

    All that "close community" in breeding. The risk of tsunami. It's part of
    merkania.

    Makes Mid-Wales seem idyllic.

    Hmm - my Standage Tunnel is a canal, yours is Standish railway tunnel . . .
    .. .who's right folks ?

    & I've got a different preaching cross, have to let D the D sort it out.

    On the other hand, you get that 'wing into the most naughty of places to
    take your photos.

    The words "Oh" and "Bollocks" spring to mind.

    http://www.bronte-country.com/tunnel-end.html is almost exactly the
    same as mine, though.

    The preaching cross was where I was sent by "Winnie", after directions
    from the corner shop.
    Sir! I'll put my hand up to the David Stirling one, but it was getting
    dark. Which is a crap excuse.

    It's more like warm sandy beaches, nice weather or pissing down rain.
    I'll take the warm sandy beaches and nice weather any day.
    Nothing wrong with a bit of danger biker boy.

    Depends how on your definition of 'defined', really.

    Could someone please tell me where to find a definitive list of what
    Something like that, you get a list of landmarks, the towns that they are in
    / near and are 'invited' to go and visit them. where exactly the landmark
    is, what route you take, and how many you actually visit is entirely up to
    you.

    see www.roundbritainrally.co.uk

  14. I assume it is compulsory for you to get the bike and / or the little
    sign into every picture?

    How much blutak did you use trying to stick the sign to various walls,
    fences and gates?

    It is. Proof, and all that.
    About half a pack, overall.

    Sticking the sign inside the helmet visor or using a FOAD bulldog clip
    are other solutions.

    Very nice. Some of the landmarks seem very obscure, but
    then I guess that is the point - to get you out there and
    travel the country, taking in the finer points of our history.

    Its certainly something I'd like to do one day, when I'm
    grey and old...

    You gotta find 'em, first. They're even more obscure if you take
    Dave's spelling at face value.
    Ho. ho. ho.

    Hmm dunno, I got the canal bit by the visitor centre.

    Although a couple of the ones I was unsure about match SD's.
    FWIW the Redgrave statue is no longer there - it was vandalised and
    has been removed.

    So where was the first lime kiln for 74 then? I found the biggies and
    the one on the opposite side of the road down that track but couldn't
    find a third.

    I think (and ICBW) they're both the Standage tunnel.
    It wasn't me.
    On the OS map, just under the "W" of Pentre Gwenlais. Before the
    stream, though.
