                    Thank you both for your kind words:smile:

                    The Amelanchia lamarkii (snowy mespilus) I took when I got back from the hospital the other day and while Mr Kandy parked the car I quickly scooted along the road to take a couple of pics before I went back inside:snorky:

                        I've got one of those too.

                        Have you flown up to Anglesey Wiseowl? I saw a car today in Holyhead with the registration plate of WOO351 :snorky:
