MYSTERY OBJECTS
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Initially I thought chimney but, looking closer, there's a railing around the top. Is it a lighthouse?

I'm keeping very quiet indeed.
Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
I guess it's one of these. Scottish lighthouses.
I'll try Ardnamurchan. . .
The antennas are interesting.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
They look like VHF Band I stacked dipoles. Or if at the coast are they VHF marine band, maybe for ship/shore repeater?

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Kev got it and Wendy knew that because she knew which one it was all along.
It's Ardnamurchan of course. The most westerly point of the British mainland.
Next one?

I'm impressed by the double knotting of the boot laces!

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Just trainers but I can't help doing a double bow, it's second nature. If it was my boots, you might spot a triple twist before I lace up the cuff then back down a bit before the double knot.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
More stairs - where is this - I knew as soon as I saw it.
I won't leave it for long - but SCG might get it. . .

No, he doesn't know. But what is intriguing him is the safety rail mounted above the bannister.....

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
It's the staircase from Lewis's shop in Manchester. I pinched it from a Manchester history site on Facebook, which I enjoy a lot. It rang an immediate bell with me as I remembered queuing up those stairs, for what seemed like an age, to see Father Christmas. That must have been around or before 1950. What a strange thing memory is.
They had large lifts too, which had an operator, who announced the contents of each floor as you arrived there. A bit like Grace Brothers.

I remember the lifts in Lewis's David, but not the staircase.
