Heading to Scotland for today's picture of the day. Its nice how google streetview includes some slightly duff weather days shots. The real point of interest is on the left, that's if you have been following this thread.

Porlock Weir I think it may be...

It's been a few years since I've been there but it looks very familiar...

Excellent! It is a most delightful place and well worth a visit; perhaps combine it with a visit to the hill and the AA box :)

Geograph is a particularly good source for AA Boxes-Even the ones in the various museums, given the right query, and nails them down to exact grid references!

Only 7 left as I recently posted, if I get round to it, just to encourage a bit of exploration and detouring I may put up a "pen Picture" of each of the remaining boxes, exactly where they are.....yes I have found them all on google street view :-D .

Now if a FCF member passes within a 20 mile detour of them there will be no excuse!

Wonder if anyone is going to Jersey with their bicycle, the box ain't in St Helier so a little explore is required.
Did look up what was happening with Jersey et al and Brexit ( its not part of the UK, Its not a member of the EU, is desperate to guarantee free trade with the EU and the UK for its Jersey Royals etc, uses the Pound)..but thats politics, and they probably won't have got round to sorting that one out so I will let it lie!

Unfortunately I believe Inspector Clouseau probably played a major part in its' construction, judging by this picture!;

Any New Forest experts? This nice little scene, a Citroen with its bonnet up and a nice pub, is from the New Forest.

Not too difficult a delve to say where....

I will abstain, as I practically live in the New Forest in the summer months and have cycled almost every inch of it...

It would not be fair on the others....
