Hope to get around to putting up the Lizard's Claw later today, if time permits. No luck at all with the regional map.

- rather like the famous story about the Prussian invasion of Schleswig-Holstein (the first of the 3 battles leading to the unification of Germany): Lord Palmerston is reported to have said: "Only three people have ever really understood the Schleswig-Holstein business – the Prince Consort, who is dead – a German professor, who has gone mad – and I, who have forgotten all about it".
