Wow ozneil wow.

Now we can get a sense of where other members live and why you would want to go and live down under.

[HollowHorn]

No need to encourage him Alex, he's like a boomerang, this one.

Will ignore HH (as usual)

Kookaburras, These birds are world's best thieves will steal food off you plate! Eateries in their habitat have warning signs up warning patrons to be careful usnless you want to see your meal departing in their beak



This bugger is totally wild , just greedy

Why not start some new sections on this section.

We have seen sunsets, animals, water,trees and lots of others that are the subject of topics in Photography or the Chat Room. I am sure everyone would appreciate seeing some of our overseas friends photos of where they live and if there is a Glasgow link that would add to the theme of Hidden Glasgow.

Thanks very much to both doonunda and ozneil for sharing some of their photos. Hopefully we will get to see even more.

Not quite Glasgow. Pic is of the "South Steyne" last Sydney Harbour Ferry built in Scotland (Leith) and sailed out here in 1938, withdrawn from the Manly- Circular Quay ( city centre) run in 1980s It is a double ender ie propeller & rudder at each end & 2 bridges, never has to turn.

This time NYC; March 2005 and Frrrrreeeeeeezing cold.
Looking NE towards Bronx and La Guardia beyond.

Chrysler v Trump

And Chrysler wins by a flagpole!
Note the completely unimpresive UN Building by the river, reminds me of the Coledge of Building and Print.

2 orbs; Time Sq.

The Prague photo in particular is beautiful, Bex.

[Bex Bissell]

Cheers Josef,
I took Our Lady from behind in this photo as opposed to the usual face on from the Old Square.
FYI I stayed in the Hotel Josef

[Doorstop]

You could have phrased that with a tad more care Bex mate.

"I took Our Lady from behind" .. Oh, Matron!

Well, he did refer to himself as an old square, after all.
