Great pics Smile

If the code you had in there initially was from flickr, then to get it to work click on the html button in the toolbar, paste it then click it again

It is a motorcycle in the wreck of the ss thistlegorm (http://www.ssthistlegorm.com/) a steam ship sunk during world war II when the grmans discovered they could bomb stuff at night. It was bombed whilst in a safe anchorage carrying its cargo of bedford trucks motor cycles boats lee enfield rifles munitions and more. The explosion was so large it lit up the night sky illuminating another ship which the germans also bombed. Not much of a wreck diver but it's nice to know a bit of the history I think
