Sites Visited

I though it might be interesting for members to list as many site visits as they can remember. I understand that those who have been doing this for many years are going to have a harder job than the member who started last month but even just the best sites people have been to would be interesting to see. I will get us started with those I can recall:

None taken. Only real point is that some may find it interesting and it can act as a bit of an introduction and get some conversation going. Not compulsory if you don't want to post mate.
