Welcome to Steam and Country Cam

The photographs are by no means professional images, but hopefully you will enjoy them as much as I enjoy taking them. I would by very interested to hear your comments, please sign my guestbook.

If like me you like tanks and all things military then you will have a great time here, with nearly 300 vehicles from 26 different countries there is so much to see.
This is just a few of their tanks which are on display and a couple of these I would of loved to of brought home.
Thank you to the tank expert who helped me with the details of these impresive machines.
Beer, Dorset
This weeks photos are from the pretty seaside village of Beer, Dorset.
While there we visited Pecorama which is a great day out, with a miniature railway and model railways to look at. They also have gardens, a play and picnic area, it's a great place to take the kids.
Beer beach is filled with lots of fishing boats and the village itself is so pretty with the small stream running all the way down the main street towards the sea. It's a nice place to spend a few hours as we found out.
