In my railway modelling days, we all believed in a 'prototype for everything' department, which was very useful for people like me to confound self-styled experts like me, by proving their petty criticisms wrong. :D
So I was delighted to find, thanks to the Beeb, a very weird cloud into which I would not dare fly, nor would anyone who remembers the Patrick McGoohan TV series 'The Prisoner'. Follow the link below, and scroll down to the 12th pic :lol:

Huh, bet that caused a stir on the day

Yep remember and love that show, even visited the village it was filmed in when living in the UK, such an amazing and surreal spot

Patrick McGoohan was perfect for the job!

A magical series!

Unfortunately, I never got around to venturing that far up the Welsh Coast from Aberystwyth.

Paul... :D ...!
