    Got these until I sort the other ones. They’re building holiday cottages here which look really nice but not quite finished so I held off taking photos of them for now. They’ve also got Llamas (I think) there. It’ll be a nice place to take the kids/Grandkids.

    You don't mean Beaurepaire Priory do you? That's all I know of round there. It was the manorial seat of the Prior of Durham. Badly damaged by the Scots during the Battle of Neville's Cross in 1346. Rebuilt, extended etc before being destroyed by the Scots in the 1640s, during the Civil War.

    Thank you very much, mate. Yeah the locals have told me the story but I keep forgetting it. That’s the one, though <ok>

    Well there is a few places built like that’s
    I think it’s for a joke but there are real buildings
    Me been a bricklayer for 20 years would of found it hard to build
    However I took the photo to show an old bricklayer friend and told him he always built like that and he would find it easy

    this was my view from my terrace when I first moved out to Spain, this was taken last feb on a dull day fullsizeoutput_23a.jpeg this is how it looks today fullsizeoutput_237.jpeg the builders are putting up 3 storey townhouses so I'm looking for a new place. It had the best view on the costa but in a years time it'll just be whitewashed concrete. Bastards.

    lol I first read that as Temple Park as in South Shields, that also has some strange wildlife roaming around especially after dark.

    A normal photo from my phone is too large. How do you reduce the size to fit?

    Struggling myself, mate. I’ve had a look but with my phone I’ve got to download other apps to be able to do it. I can’t really be bothered with all that so I’ll just Bluetooth them to the laptop and resize them on there.

    Double decker trains are lush aren’t they. If you’ve got time, take a trip to Arda Vargnan (I’ll have spelt that wrong) it’s a little town between Utrecht and Arnhem. Beautiful.
