Got to agree with you Garinda, I especially love the view of Ossie from Green Haworth. Outside the UK, I'd have to say the view of the Canadian Rockies whilst relaxing in the Banff hotsprings - bliss! Stanleybabe :)

Hiya Rachel, I'm descended from Lightbowns of Ossie and Accy, the name is sometimes spelt Lightbound, not sure if there's a connection, please PM me. Kate
