Me gloat? No...you can't gloat about being lucky, being in the right place at the right time for a change
I've just gone back over the photos and I think this is the same individual, what say you on this one? Lulworth again I think.
I'll be making mistakes until the day I die, I can live with that , but it's very reassuring for a first season butterfly-er like me to be in the company of such very experienced and knowledgeable people.
