Very unsual Nigel - what's the significance of the pyramid? It's almost surreal.

A cop at the Bologna stage of the Mille Miglia 2012. He looked like he wanted to kill me until I smiled and gave him the thumbs up. His colleague on the right actually started moving towards me.

Richard , it's a mausoleum , my photo is nearly 2 years old ( time flies) I didn't realise at the time how old it was . It has been restored.

Of interest is the Ralph Howard mentioned in the above link of Shelton Abbey.
Shelton abbey is currently an "open Prison"....

I too have been there many times. I hate the place and have vowed never to go back.


I am surprised. I have found Russia fascinating and always had a warm welcome. I have not explored much of it, visiting Moscow. Yaroslavl and Volgograd. The last in particular was a memorable trip.

The Uni I went to sent students to Yaroslavl - I went to Voronezh - in total spent about a year there - mixed feelings about the place - had a long distance relationship with a Russian girl and got to go off the beaten track and meet some "real" Russians and spend time with them - very warm people

The quality of this one isn't great (it's a 6x4" Cibachrome scanned on our cheapo printer) but I'd really like to find somewhere who can properly scan slides as I've loads of this sort of stuff...

Dave - a Durst would be very nice, except there's no way the Mrs would give it house room! :D
