A most important man you never knew

Some of you asked about the monument on the hill....
Although I am not a religious man, I have a great deal of respect with regard to this man, who was.

    David Wootton There are a few different takes on the name David Wool town going back to the old wooden mills, the towns cost of arms depicts sheep and staple. Or Wud town, the meaning of which I can’t remember, and no, it’s not “what are you doing” Under Edge I think comes from being at the base of the Cotswold escarpment.

I myself also grew up as a Catholic but not as a churchgoer here in South Limburg we have the highest hill in the Netherlands, the Vaalserberg with the three country point. there you look out over 3 countries in the lookout tower. Germany, Belgium, the Netherlands are on display. you will see the foothills of the Ardennes over Belgium. I think your farmer p doesn't like cycling or walking there. by the way, it is also a lot up and down hill, but that is what makes it so beautiful. thanks for the history lesson and the beautiful images. and yes I am used to have someone to blame I had used the mustang and leave it outside in the rain. (google translated text translation my help with english language) Yes i visit farmer p place in stealth mood and move his mustang around I did it.

    @@FarmerP Seriously, don't put yourself down! You have picked up the basics far quicker than I ever did. Also, I've seen a few videos of a first ever flight with a similarly capable drone ending in disaster inside of 15 seconds! My opinion is that a person's own outlook on life can be reflected in the way they they approach life in general and flying specifically - careless and cavalier = crashes, whereas careful, methodical and calm = gentle and precise flying. BTW, you have flown your m2p more than I have - I've been grounded since my p4a prop exploded about 8 weeks ago and the weather hasn't been good here when I'm off work to fly my new m2p. So, in those circumstances - you are more practiced than I am!

    Never heared of WIlliam Tyndale before, but mainly this is because we have our Martin Luther who did about the same thing at about the same time. From my research i found out Tyndale even came to Germany and had some bibles printed in Köln. He might have even know Luther. I guess both were men of the spirit of the time - (protestant) reformation time. In Germany this lead to a long war, with french, spanish, danish, swedish, netherlandish and more troops all fighting in Germany - basicly all catholics vs all protestants. My history teacher used to call this the actual first world war. So that makes it three world wars Germany has lost 😁 fun fact: non-english speakers cant pronounce 'squirrel' so cant non-german speakers pronounce the german name for it - 'eichhörnchen'
