I suspected that I was misunderstanding something, but did it anyway .-) I guess Norway is OK, but we haven\t one day with more than 20C yet this year, so you'll need warm clothes... Dag fra: Bob W [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi, yes, that looks nice. I've never been to any of the Scandinavian countries, but whenever I think the politics in this country will drive me into exile, I always imagine I will end up in Sweden, Denmark or Norway. They look like nice relaxed countries. By the way, it's a million pound view only because there are 4 houses in it... -- Cheers, Bob -Original Message- From: DagT [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 31 May 2005 20:38 To: pentax-discuss@pdml.net Subject: Re: My backyard (was RE: Cotty's backyard På 30. mai. 2005 kl. 16.35 skrev Cotty: On 30/5/05, Bob W, discombobulated, unleashed: Hi, this is the view you get in London for about the same money as those properties that Cotty showed: http://www.web-options.com/View2.jpg so in fact that's a million-pound view!

RE: My backyard (was RE: Cotty's backyard
Well, I've got these views, too: http://www.bbc.co.uk/london/yourlondon/greenwich/index.shtml But I have to leave the house and walk 5 minutes to see them. It's so inconvenient. And if I walk to the top of the hill I can see St. Paul's, Tower Bridge etc. in the distance. Over to the left in this photo: http://www.pin-sharp.demon.co.uk/London%20scenes/ppages/ppage10.htm That's not one of my photos, I found it on this page, which is rather good: http://www.pin-sharp.demon.co.uk/London%20scenes/scenes.htm -- Cheers, Bob -Original Message- From: frank theriault [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On 5/30/05, Bob W [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi, this is the view you get in London for about the same money as those properties that Cotty showed: http://www.web-options.com/View2.jpg I was expecting (or perhaps, more accurately, hoping) for a Walt Disney (like in Mary Poppins or Peter Pan) view of the rooftops of London, with St. Paul's or the Tower Bridge or Big Ben in the distance, on a moonlit night.

I thought so too, but then I noticed that what I thought was an outdoor bath actually appears to be a rounded table. I've not seen Bob's neighbours though...

Re: My backyard (was RE: Cotty's backyard
I grew up in a house like that - in fact, my family still owns it! Then I bought something similar (1888 3-bedroom terrace) in Wimbledon when I was in my 20's and working in London: sure wish I hadn't sold it a few years later when I went overseas for the first time!
