And can anyone name the particular site of no doubt intense action Martin is standing by?
He can't be just enjoying the view... no doubt there'll be some rusty piece of metal he's glimpsed lying on the far side of the ford.

Cheers,
Adam.

Thumbs up

Yes, you're quite right it's the famous Moissy Ford halfway between Chambois and St Lambert in the Falaise Gap. And, believe it or not, the only other person we saw that day was an old lady picking berries from the hedge, further down the track.....
