nope... but i am fairly certain that if you were, you would've asked someone to dig you and your buddies out of your earthy prisons by now...

The rest had been eaten by a fish - it was on display in the Brooklyn Museum when I've been there last year

Yesterday we went to the coast north of Liverpool, at Crosby, and we found some men on the beach standing silently, facing America...

Very nice photo, McTag.

I may have my directions confused, but I'm wondering if the spire on the horizon is on Hilbre Island, off West Kirby. I used to live on the Wirral, albeit more towards the Chester end, at Raby.

Here's a Hilbre link.

McTag, I was just informed by my Liverpudlian missus that I'm way off target. She said it was probably Blackpool Tower on the horizon.

She liked the shot of the Iron Man, BTW.

Your missus might be right, the camera was pointing in a northerly -ish direction. The illumination was from an afternoon (setting) sun.

To answer other queries, the Iron Men statues are quite recent, by the sculptor Anthony Gormley.

People seem to like them. In fact my barnacled friend has no barnacles on the end of his John Thomas. What is one to take from that? Rolling Eyes
