| | | Hello from Tinsoldier
Hi folks.
First registered for this site in September last year but this is the first of me popping in to say hello.What prompted me to do so were 2 things - reading the book "Between Earth & Paradise" by Mike Tomkies and staying in Gairloch,on the Northwest coast of Scotland,for an 11 day camping trip (just back today) where i saw at close quarters wildlife ranging from frogs,toads and newts to all manner of marine wildlife whilst snorkelling.
Anyhow,hello there! |

Part of me envies Tomkies at times..... |
