Methinks you need to set the correct date in your camera!

I cheated, that was the sight that greeted me when I went out but needless to say they all flew off as I walked out so I used the picture from a couple of weeks ago!! Same mob, different day!

While we wait another one I stumbled across via "On Your Bike". One for the POTD red clocks list from over on the "Continent". I know where it is , the city, but not what is the name of the building.

TOH That is a Church near the Anne Frank museum. I believe it was called Wisterkirk or something like that!

Save it for tomorrow Peter! A nice view of Lyme Bay with some ships to identify would do nicely!

That's what I was looking for Neil, although there are conflicting reports about the state of Queen Elizabeth in Hong Kong Harbour.It seems that a large amount of the original wreck has now been cut up for scapping and there only remains some large hull sections on the seabed marked by bouys on the surface as an unsafe anchor point for shipping. I was lucky enough to visit Southampton when the 3 modern Queens were all in port and we were able to take a boat ride around them. I will try and dig out some pictures of that.

The Queen Mary isnt in such a good state either according to the end few paragraphs of Wiki.
