      No, Just south of the IoM - before you get to Eire, seemingly.

      No, Cambridge is a cultural desert. Best bet is Model Junction in Bury St Edmunds or City Cycles in Ely

      That’s the one, just reminding myself of the line speeds, the norm for me along there is 60mph max with the logs, the NMT needs a bit more concentration!!
