Concerning article an all that but I couldn't help noticing one of the experts go into full 'bollox' overdrive when issuing the following statement.
"There hasn't been enough cloud-free Landsat images but we've managed to combine a pair of Esa Sentinel-1 radar images to notice this extension, and it's so close to calving that I think it's inevitable."
Calving ?? Calving ffs :hehe:

Good to see Wales still being used as the standard benchmark of large areas of land, there. Proper order.Quote:

I was in Swansea for New Year (because of Swansea Vs AFCB hospitality - not because it's a nice place). However, I really was pleasantly surprised. Some unique little bars that didn't charge for entry, plenty of live music and good beer to boot. Not much to dislike other than the Welshers.Quote:

When you arrive at the train station you see those Pacer trains that look like a bus :Cloud9:
Yes. In my experience, Pacer trains belie their names to a quite extraordinary degree. I remember once sitting on one going through Mid-Wales for what felt like days.Quote:

Some marginally better places on the outskirts as you go round the coast but everything is relative.
