Hi everybody, I turn again to this interesting forum, for this time to share my interesting experience to visit and learn a fair English, Sussex Haywards Heath 2011 on Saturday 12 November. I've always been interested in classic British minerals.
Sorry don't write anything else but my knowledge of English language is not enough to write here. A friend translated this text to English language and that's all I can do. Hopefully the images are enough for all visitors of this thread that would like to have a particular vision of Sussex 2011.
Thanks to Google Translate
Juan María Pérez
