  3. Caught over Aldershot in England, 4 x RAF Typhoons fly in a formation from South to North. The “Flight Radar” map identifies the aircraft, but not the point of origin or destination!

  4. That, I don't know... (All I can say is that it has nothing - as far as I know - to do with a long-mooted, planned, discussed to death and 20 years overdue, new international airport, for Manila...)
  5. Amazing. They built bridges to last, in those days... We have had to replace the entire bridge decks on two of the bridges on the GCR - and undertaken extensive refurbishment works on a third one - all within the City of Loughborough. (These were constructed during the last 2 or 3 years of the 19th century...) So we have gone from 500 years, (for an old stone-built bridge); to 170 plus years; to 100 plus years - for the life span of a bridge. To... what? 50 years? If we are lucky?

    Crock of Gold?

    The end of the main rainbow seems to come to ground in the Forest Centre in Bordon, England. Despite looking hard, the author could not find the promised crock of gold!

    Double Rainbow

    A bright sunny November day is briefly interrupted by a heavy rain shower, which produced this beautiful double rainbow over Bordon in England.

  8. The Spinnaker Tower is a Portsmouth landmark on Gunwharf Quays alongside Portsmouth Harbour. This view at dusk, was taken from the nearby Spice Island area of the city.

  9. A cold November day sees the setting sun across Portsmouth Harbout over the former HMS Dolphin building. Although a nice, but cold day, the clouds indicate a change of weather is coming and indeed over the next 12 x hours almost 1.5 x inches of rain fell!

  10. Situated on the railway between Farnham and Alton (in Wrecclesham) sits River Lane bridge. This was constructed in 1852 and still carries trains across it some 172 x years later. This view was on a wet Sunday afternoon walking up River Lane towards Farnham.

  11. Well, that's what it looks like to me, anyway! Photo taken from the 32nd floor of a building in Ermita - looking in the direction of Malate, City of Manila, Philippines.
  12. The Landbank Building looking good, with the colours of a Manila Bay sunset reflecting nicely off the building. This view was better, without that great monstrosity under construction in the background. But there we go...!!
  13. An artificial island under construction in Manila Bay... Enjoy the famous Manila Bay sunset while you can!!
  14. One of the men at the door thought I was taking pictures of them, but I explained it was just the pub I wanted being the celebration it was!
  15. Fantastic! I love that place!! 'Good to see it looking busy.

    So close!

    The Raynes Park Vale Goalkeeper makes a crucial save in the Isthmian League fixture against Farnham Town! Farnham went on to win 2-1 to cement their top of the table position. This is quite a low level of football (several levels below the English Premier League) but just under 1000 people watched the game. In context crowds at this level are usually about 100!

  17. An English pub well known to both the author of this post and the owner of this website! Situated about 1.5 x miles from Bordon in Hampshire in Hollywater, the author has been coming here for over 42 x years. After a long period of closure between 2021 and 2023 it re-opened in November 2023 and this is an outside view on the first anniversary party in November 2024!

  18. What used to be a nice view of Manila Bay, a few blocks in from Roxas Blvd., is now fast disappearing behind a seemingly never-ending stream of new high-rise buildings. Not that there will be much of the Bay left to admire from the new buildings either - since the construction of a new artificial island has commenced.
  19. The artifical island they are making in the middle of the Bay doesn't help, either!

    Goalmouth Action!

    There is far more to football than the English Premier League or German Bundesliga etc. This is goalmouth action from the Portsmouth Senior Cup match between Petersfield Town and United Services Portsmouth. The game is played with as much (if not more) passion than any higher level and represents what many believe is the REAL game. The match finished 0-0, but Petersfield won 5-3 on Penalties, this being a “knockout” cup match.

  21. Great shot. It’s a shame the high rise disturbs the view, but the Sunset over Manila Bay really does need to be experienced!
  22. from the 32nd floor of a building three blocks in from Roxas Blvd.
  23. Look at this lovely sunset here in Imus Cavite. Love the pink and purple color, perfect combination. 😍
