This is a little better than before but as said before it needs to be worked on in raw format as the 'jpeg process throws away some of the detail.

I found an amazing little Spa town this week. Unprounounceable name

It has an Inhalium for the Spa waters and a chair lift over that river with a nature trail for kids & 3decent ski runs in winter.

Very strange seeing The Memorial so empty. Felt the ghosts so powerfully today.

Hmmm…sobering. :frowning:

Looking for something else, came across this scan of a National Newspaper from Dubai

2008, Dubai closed all the City down for George W Bush’s visit.

This was the 1st time this rag gave its entire front page to one story & the photo was Press Photograph of the year.

By a Staff Reporter. Fvckers.
Still a nice memory to know I took a snap that went somewhere.

A couple of drone pictures of my house for the last 6 monthsFPSO SHIP TOP VIEW

The last time I was there was 2 days after we won the World Cup.

The Football one.

Every time I’ve been to Padstow it’s been rammed and I’ve not enjoyed it one bit, except maybe the walk out of town north along the river side where there is less people!!

Misanthrope me!!

Was out for a walk in the rain yesterday when I saw these little beauties, was going to ship them to Poland for our resident ex-pat…

These little beauties are a conundrum, the poisonous Fly Agaric that can be eaten. If you boil them they’re not toxic, hallucinogenic, yes but won’t kill you, just make you vomit. Much the same effect as a bottle of Vodka.

These fungi whisted past my ear before embedding themselves in the tree…dangerous little fuckers.

It’s the bloke who threw them you want to worry about.
