Thanks Garry,
Interesting insight to Alderney.
I liked the photo of the cow connected to the ground power unit.
Cheers, Mike.

Great link, very intersting - many thanks! :thumbsup: :)

I virtually visit Alderney whenever I get one of my Trislander moments.
And I drove the red Mrs. ParcelForce in there a few times...

Must do that again soon.

Cheers,
