Thought it was about time I posted here.

The 1st photo is the town where I was born - Caldicot, Wales. It's mentioned in the Doomsday book.
The 2nd is the city of Perth, Australia - 1 hour from where I live now, Bullsbrook.
The 3rd is downtown Bullsbrook - not much here - RAAF Pearce, few shops, servo etc.
The 4th photo is my back yard in Bullsbrook.
The 5th photo is Caldicot Castle - it's about 1000 years old.


:D

Halifax, Nova Scotia. This is the Halifax Citadel, which during the colonization of North America (or re-colonization depending on your preferred view) this British Fort was never attacked, and therefore, never lost...

Hey everyone. I live in a really old English Village, no real landmarks to speak of other than the fact the Beckhams live there....(Boring!!) But I do work just around the corner from the Imperial War Museum in Duxford... Which is just an amazing place!
