Either way we'll reach Scotland eventually :-) Nah Start with all the little islands in the north and head south ;-) Shaun P.S.

Hi, P.S. At the last check a month or two back Shetland still didn't have any coastline. That's because I gave up after Orkney and about half the Outer Hebrides.

Open StreetMap maybe?

If SOTM is going to be just a weekend event, then there is no time for mapping. Maybe you could do a mapping party in an area on Saturday / Sunday, then SOTM Mon-Wed, and some people could stay for the whole period, but if SOTM follows the model established in Manchester, I don't think mapping is practical. I would be interested in a North Wales mapping party as I have relatives ~ who I could stay with.

For accommodation the riding centre where I used to work has some great facilities. Only thing is location could make things more difficult for those without cars. £15/night, I think is the cost now. http://www.clwydspecialridingcentre.org.uk/ -- Cheers, Tom - www.bandnet.org ___ Talk-GB mailing list Talk-GB@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk-gb
