What Can You See?

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

From work I've got a breath-taking (but in a slightly different way) view of the Bromborough Dock Landfill Site.

How beautiful! Nearly as nice as looking at the Elsmere port chemical works on a winters night.
I thought Ellesmere Port looked quite pretty at night*, it's the smell I can't cope with :urff:

Sorry. Did I just see the words "looks" and "great" in a sentence describing the aesthetics of Ellesmere Port? :eek:

I don't have a window to the outside world in my office but I do have a glass partion that looks out onto the main floor of the office. Lot's of boys and girls running aroung like headless chickens as a result of the BA/Heathrow strike problems. And <leans over to read the phone displays> 38 calls being dealt with and 47 calls in the queue. Average call waiting time 45mins! Whoops!

Genius! I should count myself lucky, there's only me and one other bloke in t'office, and we're not even on the same floor.

Good luck, Mr. M! How'd you pull it off, Quiffy?

Bah. I've yet to look at the Cathedral in daytime and like it.

However, getting close up to it at nighttime, especially around the parts that aren't as lit up, like around the Chapter House, whilst the sky's a deep blue and the sun has all but set, and THEN it's beautiful.

There's also a gorgeous cathedral in Peterborough. We even have Mary Queen of Scots and Anne Boleyn buried here. I did mention it once to a mainlander who responded "You have a big church with two old ladies buried there. So what ..?"

Philistine. :roll:
