Wanna see...........
... the area I work in?
I took a wheen of photo's a couple of weeks ago for one of our Consultants (Psychiatrist) for a presentation he was due to give on our catchment area.
Given that they are properly copyrighted to yours truly, I'm at liberty to post some (or all!) and wondered if anyone would be interested in seeing one of the more deprived areas of our fair city.
These first ones are "tasters" ~ first two are the Post Office round the corner from our office; 3rd is self-explanatory; 4th is the row of boarded-up houses (well, most are) behind me as I took '3', and last is what used to be a pub, many years ago.
One of my clients had his wedding reception in there, in 1973!
Let me know what you think - and if you want to see more.

Yep..... it's a Post Office in Possil!!  Seriously, it's because the local neds have gone in through the roof more than once in the past - the roof is now solid steel, or so I heard!
Some more?

OK, here goes. (I took over 70 shots that weekend btw - but I won't inflict all of them on you, promise!!)
Not too much to say about these, really. I don't know how high apartment buildings get in the US, but these go as high as 32 storeys...... until not too long ago, they were the highest in Europe.
