Yeah..........what a bloody horrible little office you have. Don't know how you manage to cope with life in such a harsh environment.
I feel soooo fortunate to work in a city office with 12 others Monday to Friday. ;)
Yeah....................very envious mate. Beautiful spot.

If theres one thing I hate Keith it is miserable sods who give me itchy feet and bring out desires of the non sexual kind - keep up the good work and I am enjoying the photos - as always.
