sunrises, sunsets, looking out at oceans, or national parks - all the various vistas from our campervan on mine and mrd's trip round oz.


seeing my sister there waiting for me, as i came through the arrivals gate, every single time i flew home, after long periods of time spent overseas.


me and mr d sitting in our car (on a drive up through the kruger really early one morning) having a sandwich breakfast while zebras, giraffes and impala surrounded us, all having theirs too, munching on leaves and little zebras playing, chasing each other. we were all there for around half an hour or so, in the early morning light and it was so peaceful and beutiful - was amazing.


this is a very nice thread marmora man. it's put me in a really nice mood, thinking of some beautiful memories. thanks!!

Gods Window in Mpumulanga (or in my case a damn fine view).

A Leopardess leading her cubs to a fresh kill in Sabi Sabi.

An 8m Southern Right Whale calf in Walkers Bay, diving under your boat and then popping up the other side to have a curious look at you.

Looking straight up a 40' vertical wall of lush coloured coral as the sun light filters through clear blue water in the Great Barrier Reef.

The view from the 1,250th step above Tiger Cave in Krabi.

The innocent face of a sleeping child.

Moscow at night after a fresh fall of virgin snow (different story in the morning).

Regret I now have less hair and more belly than Daniel Craig - and thus may be a disappointment to a nubile young wench like yourself DM. Were we to meet tho' I could tell salty sea stories to while away the hours.

Sailing down the coast of Turkey, watching the sunrise, still drinking from the night before with 13 complete strangers.


Sitting on a large rock after ice climbing on the Aiguille du Midi in Chamonix eating bread and cheese. Turning round and smiling at Mr CamberwellOz and secretly thinking.... I never thought I'd be fit enough to do this.


Watching a little boy in Dubrovnik walk his cat down to the local pier and fish for it's dinner.


My mum and dad's smiling faces every time I get off the plane in Australia. It doesn't matter how many times I do it - they always clean the car, spring clean the house and buy me magazines and Australian treats to read/eat in the middle of the night whilst I get over my jet lag.

My father's place in Morocco ( for those who fancy a holiday :) sorry been too lasy to translate it in English)

    • There are no road works in front of Cod fellas and yesterday when I requested a stop there the driver went straight past and never stopped untill Avondale Riss. As cars have to stop because of the lights why can busses not do this? 1 minute Bloodly mindedness.
    • These are the smokeless fuels you can burn on a open fireplace in Southwark: https://smokecontrol.defra.gov.uk/fuels-php/england/ https://www.southwark.gov.uk/planning-environment-and-building-control/environment/air-quality/reduce-air-pollution/reduce-smoke
    • Thanks all, our hope was (despite the diminishing estate) he would get on with it.  Progress is glacial, it's been two years since probate was granted, that's two cold and damp winters with no heating, and not surprisingly a pipe burst. He's blames the issues on the estate agent, who separately had a dispute with him, he had a wobbly when one of the beneficiaries spoke to the estate agent.  Separately he said it was the family's fault for letting the property get into a poor condition.  It was dated, but certainly not in poor condition. There are two five star reviews on Google, and five one star: ** WARNING** This solicitor firm has to be one of the worst I have encountered. The solicitor is prehistoric in his practices and will carry out work at his own snails pace, the fax machine he uses gets turned off at 2 pm and its near impossible to get him on the phone. STAY AWAY, YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED, check the solicitors ombudsman, this firm has previous bad practice recorded.   Disgusting under no circumstances use this solicitor.For over 10 years he has not carried out the terms of a Will he has not re-invested money but has retained it.  He writes letters which are pure "Flannel" excuses for doing nothing.  You have been warned   shocking experience, delayed the whole process, told other side solicitors to not contact him as he feels pressured etc. never use.   Not fit for 21st century. No website, no email address, no electronic transfer. Very slow, very little communication.   Was not a pleasant experience dealing with this firm    
    • If you mean the one outside the church going towards Peckham, it still had the closed sign on it this morning, but as there are no road works there, I'm sure some of the drivers will stop there on request.  The stop outside the chippy coming from Peckham is closed as there are road works in front of it.  The 4 way traffic lights are in operation.., causing a lot of congestion.
