[damo]

If you sailed over the Offing Patches, Drift Rock and Trawlers Dread, which island have you just passed?

 

[sarabande]

are you describing Whales, sorry, Wales as an "island", boyo ?

 

[damo]

Who said anything about Wales /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

 

[tonybarebones]

[damo]

Well done Mr Bones /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

 

[tonybarebones]

Where is this? /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif

 

[damo]

St Ives again?

 

[tonybarebones]

Not St. Ives I'm afraid... I am assuming that for the purpose of this quiz the Bristol Channel area is still defined by the shipping forecast area Lundy... now that should give you a bit of a clue... /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif

 

[damo]

They haven't re-done the path again, and put some steps from the Landing Beach this summer, have they? (I haven't been ashore on Lundy this year /forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif )

 

[tonybarebones]

No, sorry if I missled you there Damo, it's not Lundy, I was inferring that this place is at the outer extremities of the B.C. in fact it's in the Scillies, which I believe to be in the Lundy sea area; please god... now which island and where on that island... thats the question /forums/images/graemlins/blush.gif

 

[damo]

Porth Hellick, St Mary's

 

[tonybarebones]

Sorry to say Damo you're wrong... /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif

[tonybarebones]

No sorry to say not Hughtown either... /forums/images/graemlins/shocked.gif
