That's a large expanse of forest and lakes/rivers in the background. Maybe Finnish?.. or at least Scandinavia?
Good spot RR, but incorrect on both counts.

Unplanned and unexpected, but I have to now go and invigilate an examination.

I shall have a brief relief at 1415.

I'll put my light off until I get back to you.

Good hunting.

Actually that large expanse is correctly described as a swamp.

Well done TC.

RR, I tend to agree with you.

I wonder if that engine is an Argus.
