Hi All

Having only joined R2R only this week and having received
such a warm welcome from you all, I wanted to share something special
with you all just before the holidays.

I am in Norfolk UK and I am very lucky to live just offshore to Europe's largest - and the worlds longest
Chalk reef. I have been fortunate to be aware of this special site since a child and have followed its conservation and wonder
to this day.

Not many people know about this special site - and cold water reefs generally get less press attention
over tropical reefs. However, I have included some attachments for you all to view - and I am sure
you will agree with me that it is a very special and important reef.

My first post this week detailed the start of my very first reef tank.
This fulfils a long held dream which began when I first saw those reefs as a child.

I now share them with you all.

Thanks again for the warm welcome
Happy holidays
from TOM
