From a gun emplacement to a control tower.

He don't be like that you doing fine. It's a bit like a new toy you can't stop playing with. I've not been out in quite a while but intend to in the near future so if you want to tag along your welcome. I presume you don't live far from me so drop me a PM and we can work something out.

I feel it's time to retire from this site.

I might come back when i do more research - who knows!! As i said - i have just started out - there is a hell of a learning curve but i feel a little uneasy on here. Strange!

No, definitely stay. Good posts promote debate and shared interests as this one has. Lots of encouragement here. Nothing wrong with what you're doing.

People aren't criticising you when they tell you you've missed stuff, they're telling you in case you want to see it!

There's two ways of looking at it;

If you want to document ww2 remains for history/posterity then it's worth being thorough and methodical and doing your research before you go 'out in the field', that way you don't miss things and have to go back for them, and you'll get a more complete picture. In this case far from needing to leave here and come back after you've done research, you'll actually get loads of help and advice here if you want to do that.

If you're just out to see a few interesting things and take a few photos to keep you out of trouble, then you can do whatever you like.

Either is good!

Please persevere with us. You won't find another site as lively, well informed or sociable as this one I can assure you.

Just learning

We all started somewhere, sometime. The posts you have done are really good (particularly liked the one on the Loddon) because you are interested in the history as well as just snapping away. And you do seeem to enjoy it. I think you need to bear in mind that some of the comments are not as critical as they read - few of the people posting are diplomats. So please keep going!

I put it down as a toys out of the pram moment. I love this site and though my mates think I am a nutter they kind of understand where I am coming from.
My history is ex forces brat born in former West Germany. I cam heavily influenced by my dad who served 27 years in the RA. His bag is WW1 and he specialises in the Somme tracing the defence lines and battle history through Army war records. I need to get out there with him to further myself in this area. My bag is WW2 and I have a real desire to get back out there. Again apologies and I am plodding away.
