Maybe our resident artist can do a painting of that one. (Fethiye ) I might take up to 4.

Please PM me.

That's exactly how I imagine Dingwall to be.

I have searched for a souvenir fridge magnet from my beloved home town Leighton Buzzard. This is one from Ebay - I'm not entirely convinced...




It shows two of our great treasures in the leafy market town, Barclays bank and the back of a parked car.

On mentioning Fethiye. I always assumed that when I tell people in England that I live in Fethiye that they would know where it is. Hardly anyone has heard of it but when I think about it neither had I until I came upon it by accident when I came to buy in Calis. I did once meet a woman in Morrisons on one of my infrequent visits to the UK who told me that she had just been to the most wonderful fruit and veg markets  in Turkey called Fethiye but she said "you have probably never heard of it" they have wonderful tomatoes. "not like these effing hard things" lol.

Found a nice one of fishing boats in Ullapool my home town.  Have messed about but don't seem to be able to copy picture of magnet only.

Lovely Marggie. Tried to reproduce it here but lost quality I'm afraid.





Very similar to Plockton I think
