Pat sorry I should know fine well where Scatsta is but I had a serious senior moment.
Dycedon - only a couple of budgies flown over us all day today. Better luck tomorrow.

I will forgive you Jim

We just like to keep the "friendly banter" going between us and the Shelties!!  Especially as they "stole" our ferry - (Northlink Ferries, don't start me on that topic.
No planes, no boats and we never have had trains...............  Role on June & our trip to Calis.
How does Calis compare to Gocek?  Should be a bit cheaper I hear.

Welcome Pat, if you are used to Gocek, look at this as the local council estate:D
