It's not the old G.P.O. in Sydney, is it - I've never seen it without scaffolding!?

Very good, Walter, though I think you cheated by finding the Post Office title in the first place!! I stood outside that post office last year, remember it well - something about the angle of the light shows me it isn't England.

Over to you.

Well, I bought years back this copper engraving of the Main Post Office Building in Exeter
http://www.devon.gov.uk/library/locstudy/gif/sc1006.jpg as a present for my parents, and wrote a paper about the differences/similarity of public buildings in the Victoran Age/Emperor William time - so it really wasn't a big cheat :wink:


But didn't Kev guess it before?

So yes, Kev, you did get it before Walter. But of course if you guess in a list, maybe it's not as kosher as googling for the actual building and getting its name, as Walter did... aaah I don't know, you fight it out!

CI...I thought about you today when a customer came in with a 40-page brochure for the new QE2. 110 day around the world trip. $42000 per person,
double occupancy, down on level 1, up to $300000
each for the luxury suites. All of the people pictured were relatively young and very handsome or beautiful. Any plans for making that trip? I'll
volunteer to carry your luggage. I don't mind being in the "cheap" part of the boat!

Actually, some of the suites on the QE2 are quite reasonable compared to other ships - other than the 110 day 'round the world. If I had $42 grand to blow on a cruise, I'd already have a mbz SL430 sitting in my garage. Wink

Here's something to ponder while the two gentlemen defer to each other!

This building was the site of an uprising in 1916.
