And you thought it was such a dull little town.

Well, it seems to have a blackout in force! (at the end). I'm sure that is intentional to get us wanting more - which it does!! :mrgreen:

You are most kind, the blackout is difficulties with editing.

Nice to see the Rocket running well - lots of criticism in some quarters :(

Surprised to hear that, and Sam’s gave it a good review. As to myself, I wished everything worked so well. Maybe someone caught a dud.

The Henley we visit regularly is similar to Chops but without the castle.

Although I assume it was a rhetorical question I'll provide 2 answers!

https://www.visit-henley.com/ is for Henley-on-Thames

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henley-in-Arden is for Henley-in-Arden (no surprise as it's in the link name).

Neither of which is being modelled I might add! The Chops' version is much more interesting than either place.

Don’t think I’ve been to Henley in Arden. Often go to the other one though, not far from here.

Very nice.

No that’s correct. The crack bottom left is the Thames.

Henley-on-the-Thames. As a child I had the experience of falling in the Thames, once. Probably accounts for
my derangement, now. To the regret of the school system I attended Shiplake, in well, Shiplake.

Funny thing, I always felt more at home in the UK then elsewhere. Much of my ancestry hails from the Island of
Berra, which looks absolutely charming. Not so charming to my ancestors, no doubt, who left on the first boat out.
