Gianna Stefani http://www.buchan-meteo.org.uk I've looked at your website and tried to pinpoint the location from the latitude given. I come up with Peterhead Prison - surely not? :-) Seriously, I know that area passably well. Used to go birdwatching there when I had time off during spells of duty at Aberdeen. Jack |

m... "Gianna Stefani" wrote Gianna Stefani http://www.buchan-meteo.org.uk I've looked at your website and tried to pinpoint the location from the latitude given. I come up with Peterhead Prison - surely not? :-) Ummmm NO! (-: As you may know, Peterhead Prison is the male sex offenders prison (or 'treatment centre') at Invernettie. I can however see it (naked eye) just across the water ... so you were not too far out. I haven't got any GPS equpment but according to my digital map, the latitude is correct for the road on which I live ... well, I don't live *on* it ... I had intended to borrow a GPS thingy from a friend but said friend is now about 600 miles to the south so, hopefully the map is not too far out. Seriously, I know that area passably well. Used to go birdwatching there when I had time off during spells of duty at Aberdeen. Birdwatching is a hobby of mine (: There as been a bit of a problem this year as there was a shortage of sand eels in the spring so not as much breeding as would be normal. I only saw 4 puffins (at the Bullers o' Buchan) ... and they didn't stay to breed. I think we (I) have wandered off topic ... Gianna currently doing life for breathing in a public place (: |
