The House of Terror

 

Hey folks. Wouldn't it be interesting to try and track down this house, and figure out where in the world it was?

Nah. Probably not.

Luckily, the slide is annotated with "May-1975-Glenview Trevelmond".

Looks like a nice part of Cornwall, tho' that slide doesn't do it justice.

The Dingwall Acropolis

 

Few people are aware that Ancient Greece had control over norther Scotland until the events of 76BC. But, here's the evidence.

Just outside of Dingwall,  the remains of Plato's Acropolis...remain. Ignored by most NC500 drivers, and remembered only as the name of Dingwall's Gyro and Kebab Takeaway.

Worth a visit.

Bonus - Interactive Double Pendulum Playground

December in The Lakes

 

This would appear to be Blea Water, the deepest Tarn in this Lake District.

It's from a set of slides seemingly documenting a university department's trip to the Lake District to do some sampling of water n stuff from teh various areas. And some nice picturescque slides... like this.

Slide Number 5900, in this collection.
