Sites of the Month for 2004: July to December

Site of the Month July 2004

This month, a return to a conservation theme. I have always been fascinated by Otters (probably through reading 'Tarka the Otter' and 'Ring of Bright Water' as a child) and I am always pleased when I see a Butterfly, even if of a less colourful species. So this month I have chosen a site that combines both Otter and Butterfly conservation:

Site of the Month for August 2004

This month I've decided to revisit my childhood days by making C.N.Hill's tribute to Dan Dare and the Eagle Comic, the Site of the Month:

Site of the Month for September 2004

It is now 64 Years since the Battle of Britain was fought. Whilst enemies are are now allies, it is important that we remember not just the historical significance, but to remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice in the defence of this country. Fortunately we have in the BBMF a 'living' reminder of that 'dark' time:

Site of the Month for October 2004

SpaceShipOne is the almost certain winner of the X-Prize. So I have chosen Scaled Composites, builders of both SpaceShipOne and its carrier Aircraft White Knight, as site of the Month:

Site of the Month for November 2004

On the 11th Hour of the 11th Day of the 11th Month of 1918, the Guns fell silent on the Western Front. If my memory serves, there has only been one year since then that a member of the British Armed Services has NOT been killed on Active Service. So I have chosen for this site of the Month an organisation that cares for those who have served and their families:
