small huss can be got there - never seems to be big ones - the dogs tend to be ibg enough maybe thats why

but the decent conger have all been taken out of it unfortunately - might be a few bootlaces about again in the summer

depends on the take merchants really

Fair play for putting the effort in lads, planning on doing a good bit of travelling myself this year.
