Last week I alluded to the Wey & Arun Canal so I thought it appropriate to give a little more background to this, I hope, worthy cause. The Canal was thought about and planned in the very early...

Good morning everyone - very early I know, but I'm out shortly to get my hair cut, then on to lunch which should be very nice and just in case I can't remember later on, I'll do it now !! The half way...

Good morning everyone - from rather cold south oz, where it's a long weekend and not much to recommend it - a good one to stay in and sit by the fire. Four from the 'more unusual' category today, but...
