Sion's Trip To Greece May/June 2004

 

OK. Some sad people have asked if they can have a look at my Holiday Photo's. As I am always eager and willing to please an adoring public (sic), then I'm putting up a first draft. It does take time to put captions up and tell people what the pictures are all about, so I haven't done that yet (this'll probably get done around July/August). If you want to use a picture then just e-mail me and ask, as long as it's for non-profit use I'll probably give permission. You can reach me at sionmc@hotmail.com.
