L'anse de Vicq France

We have our "Q"... the light at L'anse de Vicq isn't pictured but there is is one listed on the international list of lighthouses that I use as a reference. We got the "V" last week so if the next person uses the "Q" I believe that uses all the letters of the alphabet.

Here is another photo I discovered of Paul's last light during W.W.II, Gorleston (Norfolk,Eng.) Note the camouflage paint!
