Nicely spawned Steve


Does that mean I can stop looking a thumbnails of british coastline on google now ?

I even had Memory Map on at one point but that was just taking forever.

Good laugh cheers Gary, not got much work done today though.

 

[Mesquite]

I think I've got to give it to:

St Abbs Head, Berwickshire?

Well done Steve but if Locum PMs me an address too, I'll see if I can find a second prize as he was so close.

I won???? Ruddy hell, that was a lucky guess

Great competetion Gary and thanks. At least you can post the pics of your trip now

 

[Shewie]

I bet andybysea would have got it first go, I reckon he must see that view nearly everyday out of his back window.

 

[harryhaller]

Would it be North Devon? We're looking west and the land seems rather flat on top, yet the coast is steep. Lee Bay?

Edit:

Too late

 

[Wayland]

I've just updated the Waylandscape with some of the new pictures.

Not all yet because it was a productive trip and I've got a lot of Shopping to do as a result.

 

[Iona]

Iona?! unlikely I guess but would be a cool coincidence

 

[xylaria]

Just for my own head, is the small lump on the headland the lighthouse and fog horn?

 

[Wayland]

No, the lighthouse is behind me, a huge lump of rock and several thousand sea birds.

I'm looking West towards Fast Castle Head along Pettico Wick Bay.

 

[locum76]

bleedin' eck, i was pretty close then. i require no prize for coming second though, just make sure and get me a brew if we're ever sat round the campfire.

 

[Wayland]

Fair enough mate.

I felt a bit tight not giving it to you though cos you were really close.

 

[scrogger]

Congrats Steve, and forgot to say great photo and comp Wayland.
Must say i'm mighty tempted by a pyramid tarp, and a cliff top trip to Scotland.

 

[Shewie]

Was that your only shelter then Gary, perched up on that headland like that I would have been worried about ending up in Norway.

Or was that your plan all along ???

Well done Steve, and well done Gary for the comp and your 4000th post.

nice one guys.

It seems that the PT. has been discontinued now and I think I must have bought almost the last one.

Shame because it seems to be a good bit of kit tent wise.

I had the back up of retreating to the van if I needed to but I wanted to test it out in mountain type conditions while I had that back up available.

Seems pretty good, although there was a draught under the edge at one point.

I guess these are issues common to most single skin floorless tents and if you want light you've just got to adapt to them.

It's lot better than a poncho for not a lot more weight.

The tarp looks great sorry I missed out no one over hear had them
