Dave might have mentioned his visits to the Country Park visitor centre, but I'm not certain about that. Hoo is owned by the MOD so you set foot on there at your own peril!

We set...Agreed, but it's just one sheep for us! We set out with the intention of trying to set foot on every island but as soon as we started we realised it would be beyond us, especially as we don't have a boat. So we've settled for landing on as many as we can and photographing the rest. If it's been photographed it's on the list and on the map with a pink marker. Those we've set foot on are blue, and interesting islets/rocks are yellow but not included in the island counter.

The piece of land must have a variety of vegetation and be able to support at least 2 sheep. If the island has a name, it's a bonus! Just wanted to check we are on the same playing field! sticking-out-tongue-smileySamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14444615754808075878noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4670019149002401709.post-75583511236288194942012-08-03T10:52:19.629+01:002012-08-03T10:52:19.629+01:00Hi Folks.
