Great to see West Penwith not covered in 'snow' anymore...Boscawen-un looks great.

Talking of digital mapping..we changed systems at work at the start of the summer....all out listings are now 3km north of where they were...nightmare!

Not as bad as the military getting it wrong , "oops sorry sarge that was a hospital next to the target " The implementation of WGS 84 involved a shift of 100 metres , maybe that is the explanation .

Indeed - I'm plotting my way through the field boundaries in preparation for our next visit down. I hope to see some of the stones I've missed previously.
