Degsy Posted June 12, 2010 Author Share Posted June 12, 2010 (edited) These pics were difficult to take as I had to balance on top of the spare wheels on my GMC 352 to get any sort of view......and it shows :blush: The last pic is of an American carrier, miles out to sea and barely visible in the haze, I have forgotten it's name but seem to remember it was the largest one in service, no doubt someone can put a name to it.

Smithy Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Thanks for posting all the pictures up Degsy, always good to see some different one. God I wish the weather had been like that on the 6th June last year when we went across though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Degsy Posted June 18, 2010 Author Share Posted June 18, 2010 Yes , the weather was brilliant but sods law came into operation as it poured down when we were packing up to leave Horndean and again when we were packing to leave Asnelles other wise it was wall to wall sunshine.
