I would love one of those Georgian terraces at the bottom of the photo, amazing houses, been in a couple and they are absolutely massive, the basements are the size of an average house easily. Now that’s a man cave. ---

Many years ago the chap in the photo below cadged a cigarette off me outside the city walls of Tallinn, Estonia. He then told me about his experiences after being conscripted to fight with the Soviet Army in Afganistan. I think his face says it all really. ![](https://discourse-sotonians-uploads.s3.dualstack.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/original/3X/2/f/2f0984456f8dd47c5beb0a68b72c3d6cf62ef2aa.jpeg) ---

Nor to be honest did the NATO forces I think we climbed from about 6,000 feet to around 16,000 the whole trek took about 6 hours, and back at that time I thought I was healthy yet I couldn’t breath when it was my turn to simply carry the guide’s Kalashnikov. Looking back the insane thing is I did that climb in a pair of retro Reeboks, a Saints Polo shirt & baseball cap. We had nothing else, just a pack of Marlboro & a lighter. No water, no food. (But we had left a 6 pack of Heineken in a stream where we parked the car so did have the thought of a cold beer when we got back) A farmer at the mountain pass fed us unleaved bread and some form of warm goat fat to dip it into for lunch ---

My aunt and uncle have house up in North Uist and the family all piled up there for a big party. Remote, cold and windy. But stunning too. Some beaches that wouldn’t look out of place in the Caribbean. Shame it’s always so cold. ---

The second picture reminds me of a trip to Colombia and staying in an agricultural college. One morning walk out bleary eyed to the outside kitchen to be faced with a large cow carcass and a head on the floor. Not what you want to see as a vegetarian. Otherwise Colombia was stunning place. If not a bit edgy where we went. ---
