I intend to visit there someday, Ralph. Being I musician, I'm interested in The Early Music Shop, which has its showroom there.
Nice shot. I haven't seen it from that angle before. Interesting.
When I was young and lost, during the Thatcher years, I was forced into a job in the Parks Department, working with craftsmen on various projects. Once I was with an old guy (probably the age I am now, 63) who was a bricklayer, one of the best. He told me stories about his father and grandfather who had also been bricklayers, and how they made these big stacks - or rather ones like it up in my home town of Dundee. He spoke with great pride about one in particular from 1866, Cox's Stack, which was attached to the much hated jute factories. The council had plans in the 1970s to knock it down, but all the tradesmen, led by the brickies, agitated for keeping it. The factories have been converted to housing, and Cox's Stack still stands proud on the landscape. Here it is:

I appreciate good tradesmen. I just can't find them, though, when I want something done on the house!
