Default My SWB display - a work in process

For some reason I cannot get into the site in South Sudan so I am doing these posts while I am in Nairobi for a few days.

This collection has been slowly built up over the years and continues to grow.

My latest addition is NZ 122 which is not yet part of this display.

Regards,

Will
