[OGDev] Visiting other OpenGuides

[M.B.Gaved]

The Brogo Rotolactor seems like the kind of thing we need in Milton Keynes, it's the kind of thing they'd invent here, do they do a version for Concrete Cows?

We'd welcome anybody taking a dive into Milton Keynes Open Guide and making any general critiques and advice for improvement as well as more specific grammar checking and tidying.

Tom's out in Canada at the moment though and I am up to my neck in deadlines this month so I think our contributions might be over a longer period to other folks (we are trying to get round to making at least one entry to everybody else's guide though as we travel around :-) ).

I chose "engineer" because a mate of mine who is one said he wouldn't 
look at a "geek tourist" site.

If you're a geek and you think it's interesting, I suspect it qualifies.  
Go for it!

Most of what's in there is big stuff or historical, but that's in no way 
what it's restricted to.  Hell, I've even put in the Brogo Rotolactor, a 
device from my childhood for efficiently milking cows, which I thought 
was cool.
