Following our visit to the Knockholt contest sites in July 2006 on what seemed like one of the hottest days of the year, I suggested a return visit in early spring to take some photos of the March contest site without leaves on the trees. Both Bill and Alan were very keen to do this, so a return visit was planned for early march. As we had also contacted Mike G8AMG over the christmas holiday, and he had expressed an interest in a return visit to Kent after many years, this was an opportunity too good to miss. |

So once agaon we found ourselves in the Three Horseshoes at Knockholt for lunch. This being March we had to eat inside. Left to Right: |
