For your second view I think you're just behind the clock tower on this one. Rotate it and the handrail and the ledgey thing to the right are visible.

Do I get bonus points for having been born just off the right of the first view?

Where was I today?
Odd that, as I ask myself that question every evening :-[

If I'd been where you were I'd have been bricking it. No head for heights :no:

I struggle with Heights but if you only look where your walking and not down it was okay until the breeze freshened up. I was a bit shake at times but the job had to be done.

Never been to Manchester, if you said it was Shanghai or Sheffield I wouldn't
have known any better.

I suppose it's a silly question but I'm told they're the only sort I ask:

What were you doing up there? :confused2:

Can we expect a kit, or a ready-to-plonk building ? ;)

Best regards,
