I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure!

Re: Whatsthisthen?
I've seen wordier intros to whatsthisthens? What do you want Mick the location? Bit of conscientious bobby-ing reveals the pic has a ref DSC_3801.JPG.
4 clicks of the Maverick shutter before that image, we have DSC_3797.jpg taken at the stopover at Wick (Bristol).
Hence more than likely no more views of the sea on the saunter, although the whatthisthen? 3801 pic gives the impression of a sea scene beyond the road the field the hedges and the trees.
Location somewhere between your overnight at Toghill House Farm Wick, and your route down through Bath and Frome to Cranmore. Maybe Morning Mist over the Somerset Levels.

Re: Whatsthisthen?
Excellent deductive work there Neil, but unfortunately it led you astray. I wasn't really after the location but guesses as to what the white blobs in the sky are? I can confirm that the picture was taken on Friday afternoon on my way home from collecting my new laptop in Brackley!!

Yes I ask the stupid questions, because normally it is that simple.

Re: Whatsthisthen?
You cracked it Ryan!! It was taken on the lane from Lillee down to Whitwell and the aircraft is on final approach to Luton Airport!

Re: Whatsthisthen?
On a similar theme, returning home from Mick's after the Saunter on what was a very clear night, I saw a constellation of Starlink satellites go across the sky...
There were five or six all in a straight line and it looked for all the world like a fleet of UFOs...

I have yet to catch them. Saw on once then the clouds obscured the rest, that would be at least 18months ago. Always clouds when I remember, or they are on holiday somewhere else.
