4). This was the view to the right. (87kb) |

6). This was a shot of Doreen scrambling up the rocks to try and rescue a couple of bottles of beer, which some previous visitor had forgotten to remove. (29kb) |

8). The Bottle of Beer in the Stone: I couldn't resist having a go, I managed to extract the two bottles from the small pool of water that was cooling them, but since doing this didn't confer any Excalibur type powers on me, I put them back in case the original owner ever decided to return for them.
