Our country is sucking up to the afore-mentioned country in such attacks, and basically brown-nosing.

Very nice pics, but could you please post jpeg or gif files from now on? Bitmap files are really big and take aaaages to download on a modem.

Mystery Spot!  Where is it?  Who knows!

Behold!  The mysteries of the Mystery Spot!

Yes! The Mystery Spot!  Where gravity goes completely whack!  Woo!  (There's a popular one of these in Northern Michigan) E-mail me for directions!

Taco... sems to me that that room is angled with an angled camera in it aswell, therefore the people are standing up straigt but due to the optical illusion, we assume people fall over rather thanb rooms tilt so it looks like the people are falling over.

Reading

Bar Oz... and underground pub. It's actually a bit of a dump, but it's so cool. To the right of the picture is Readings crappy train station.


Nandos: Thge restaurant I was in last night. Fairly cheap self-service place. Very spicy food.


Hexagon theatre. The only theatre in town that's half decent. But also down that hole at the bottom of the picture is an underground car park, which regularly doubles up as a local skateboard spot, since the neo-nazi security kick you out of everywhere else.

This is the carillon of my home town, Tielt, in the east of the province of West Flanders.


City hall.


This is in Gent, the city I go to by train every day (only half an hour), to go to college.


This is the atomium in Brussels, our capital. It represents an iron molecule.


Manneken Pis, also in Brussels.

To access my spy satellite in orbit, go here and type in Celbridge in the town box, click on the 1st search result, then zoom in to the building level, then you'll see a nice overhead of my town.

I haven't tried but you could also try typing "Holly's house" in and see what comes up!

The site with this picture says:
'Paris has its Eiffel Tower; New York, its Empire State  and Rome, its Coliseum; Catford has its plastic cat.'
That's just down the road from me!

Yeah, it might a be a feat of engineering excellence, however I can't think of anywhere less glamourous than a bridge from Hull to Grimsby.

Bergen, Norway. Time to do the Google image search. At least one of those Japanese tourists must have brought a digital camera last summer.

View from one of the many surrounding mountains:



Nygård Park, in the heart of the city:



I knew I would find one! I know it's large, but I'm going to post it anyways:
 

A picture, probably, from the Arboretum (flower-garden). Quite Norwegianish.



I'm not going to tie up this place with images, so here's URLs for the large ones.

That's Sydney harbour, with the Bridge and the Opera House. The swooshy things are most likely ferries at night with their lights on - otherwise the city has alot of explaining to do!
