Where am I map
« on: Tuesday 28 April 15 12:25 BST (UK) »
I have been keeping a map to help me place the various photos and thought I would share it with you.
I must point out this is not intended to be absolutely accurate, it is an approximate position of the properties. It is quite difficult to place some of them either in the wilds of Scotland or in the more crowded southern ones.
I hope you find it interesting.

Aw Pat this is fantastic.  ;D ;D ;D  What a brilliant visual aid and so very helpful!

What a brilliant itinerary this would make for a tour of the UK and Scotland!  ;D ;D ;D

I'm just trying to get the other photos that are connected to the WAI mansions (as in the people) sorted and scanned, with the hope that we can identify them and may be cross match some of the people.

PS If it's not too much trouble, would you mind very much adding WAI No 18 - Pevensey Castle (refer WAI 17)?

I have added it, not a lot of room down south, but if I make the writing smaller it may be more difficult to read.   I will try to reduce the size of the print and see what happens, I will repost if successful.

That's perfect Pat.  8)

It's good to visualise Bass Rock in relation to Balhomie.

Hi there WAI searchers, so pleased you like the map, I was getting so confused finding places so I decided to do a map.
I have edited the 2nd version showing 18) Pevensey and I have also changed the position of Herstmonceaux, as I realised I was quite a few miles out with that one. I have made the writing a bit smaller and it seems OK,  but  this is as small as I can go as my programme will not let me print any smaller than this.
If you find any more places, Wales is looking pretty empty or even Ireland  ;D ::)
