My second "Thank You" to the people behind QGIS. I've been fascinated by the layout of the long-gone old Racecourse near me. Finally got around to georeferencing an 80 year old aerial photo today. Thanks again.   My quick, silent video just put up for the local FB group etc:

Yes, Emma 99+% gone, just a wee pile of rubble and a lone palm tree.  Sorry for the delay; moving house....
