Seasons Greetings from the Great County of Padstershire!

Here is the first in a series of scenes from around the county.
This week, Great Piddle village.

A close up of the castle. It was once home to the Namby-Pambie family, until Lord dePadster booted 'em out in the 14th century. Slighted by Ollie Cromwell in the English Civil War (he did like to wreck things didn't he?)

The village of Great Piddle. The villagers are known as 'Piddlers', and there is a Piddling Festival every year.

That looks nice, I like good British routes.

Thinking of starting a UK route once I've finished my current project.
 
Thanks everyone for your very kind comments.

Incidentally Colhad, I just viewed your 1000mm gauge route and it looks superb. Very realistic and picturesque. The slideshow feature in Photobucket is a good idea.

Best wishes,
Padster
