At one point anyone could contribute. I added a few bits of crap to their servers. They have probably gone by now |

Well I lived on the Island for 7 years when I was young - used to go surfing at Compton Bay - near Freshwater. Much better "out-of-season" when no tourists tramping everywhere

I did before, I live in Cornwall. I don't think you can top that. Even Devonport is a better Naval Base TBH.

Cornwall? I can definitely top that. As I said, I live in Portsmouth (and Bournemouth). It's great.
