Great picture Dave! :handclap:

Thanks folks.
Snappel, I've been up there a few times at night and the view is amazing. If the weather's OK, I'll take a few night snaps next Monday or Tuesday.

Nice pic SD :)

Jona76, thanks. Was it taken with your own camera? They must be original pics taken with your own camera.

Very nice, Jona.

But spooky.
I took a night shot, & while it doesn't show the same time as yours, the hands appear to be in the same position.

I needed the money so I sold It.

Nah don't know, never noticed an Orb on the tower ever.

Max, I'm talking about a long time ago, I used to go to school next door. It was definitely there when I left in 1954. It was a large orb with a spike sticking out of the top. I bet Jona knows about it. :037:

I found some pics of it.

It had the top part of the tower and the bells removed because they were unsafe.

Hi Shy

Actually I always remember the tower as it is now so I probably never saw it as you show in those views. No wonder it looks kind of on the stubby side. Thanks for sharing these views with us, Shy.

Chris

The only good thing I can think of about being ancient like me is that I have lived through what younger people can only read about. :037:

Collapsed maybe? Dunno never noticed It ever.

Very nice Max :handclap:

Great photograph, Max! I did an acrylic painting for my parents' living room wall of a sunset from Otterspool based on a slide that I took in the mid-Sixties. The view was much like you show except that the tide was out and you had the reflection of the sun on the mud!

Chris

A fine picture Max. Well done indeedy!

:handclap:

Very nice, Max.

I always hated that cat but it's gained some respect now I've found out it's by a famous graffiti artist called Banksy. There's a piece here...http://www.thisislondon.co.uk/news/a...art/article.do...about a door he did some graffiti on in Liverpool which thieves were stopped from taking.

Here's a link to the Berry Street graffiti...
