Thanks Stan.

If it helps, I'm at 52 N, 0 E (Yes, virtually on the Greenwich meridian)
which means I
don't have to do too much converting to Universal Time.

Believe it or not, I had thought of doing a shot from Stonehenge before
Philip put
his picture up but just didn't get a chance to go there till this week (it's
a 250 mile
round trip and I did it (foolishly!!) twice this week. Boy, was it difficult
getting
up for work next day.
