What a great day for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. I think every man woman and child of this nation will wake this morning with new hope. Hope that the mistakes and missed opportunities of recent years will finally be undone. Hope that, from now on, we will all be armed with a new freedom, a new ease of living our lives without constraint by the petty failings of tired and out-of-date thinking.
I am of course talking about my new website, of which version 1 is now released
ukcampingmap.co.uk
It’s seems like an obvious idea, and I for one can’t believe no-one else has done it yet (particularly as I’ve been ruminating over it for the past two years): All the UK’s campsites plotted on a google map. So much easier than trawling through directories of campsites available elsewhere on the internet, that have only rudimentary or difficult to use tools for finding a campsite in the location you want one.
It has a search (for postcodes, towns, villages, tourist attractions) and also has easy navigation for viewing a single region, county or tourist area (eg Snowdonia).
There’s plenty more work to do on it, but for the first time, after a few weeks of intense work*, I have something fairly stable which is, while still very basic, still a lot easier to use than other campsite directories.
Enjoy.
Oh, and God help us now the Tories are in!
