It looks great, kaz, thank you very much! Much better than it was!

Isn't it odd how resistant the purple tone is...I wonder why...

Cheers,

had an idea?!?  (dont get them often ;D)

if you know the area  (exact)  maybe some one on here lives close by and could see what is still standing...

and take a pic for you??  IT IS A LONG SHOT>. but if I lived nearby I would love to do that ..cos its an interestin pic and to see it now would be great...

or then again, you could probably google the area and go on google earth and pic up an idea of the area today...  (my grandson is always zooming in  on that) .. I have managed to pic up some lovely shots of my old houses on google earth...
if you cant do it  let me know the addie and I will ask my Grandson to search it for you...

let us know if you get anywhere with it...

Having grown up in North Wales, and been on various little trips to that area and seen what the Forestry Commision has done, I think that Carol's second image is  most like what it should be like.

Really, it depends on the calibration of our monitors. I'm on my old laptop at the moment which has a blt of a blue tinge but on my super dooper, widescreen monitor set to bestest setting for graphics, Carol's second is nearest  :)

Hope you don't mind me having a go, first attempt at anything.  Unsure as to what it will look like posted :-\

Hi everybody!

Thanks for another try, kaz, I appreciate it!

It is a little bit green, but isn't it interesting how some of the bits of slate have come out a perfect slate colour, where in the purple versions they were still purple. this is an odd one.

And I have boxes of slides like that ;D

Xin, I doubt there's anybody in the area. But I think I have mayyybe identified it on a map...it's down a forestry road. I have tried a couple of times to load Google Earth and it fries my system >:(

I can post a query on one of the Wales boards and see if anybody can pinpoint it...

Gadget, I think so too. I was back in the village about 15 years ago and don't think I took any pictures. Mostly I was trying not to get all choked up with the childhood memories that were flooding back... :-\
