What can you see out of your window

Nessie

Heavier rain now - and the wind has got up. Just heard that the road that has been closed since the flooding 6 weeks ago, which reopened at 6pm last night, is closed again due to flooding!

Might just go to the gym tonight.

I can't see anything now - I've had to close the blind because, get this, the sun has come out. I want to go home now for my run round the park, sadly I have another 3 hours of this to go. I must go do some work.

Thanks Gaz and Caz. Update on my view - there's a man washing his car at the petrol station. Exciting stuff.

Guess I'd better do some work now, make the afternoon go quickly. Swimming lesson at 6pm tonight. (I can do a few strokes without the floats now). Would they let me do a triathlon with armbands on and stabilisers on my bike? Yep. I can't ride a bike either. Six brothers and not one of them taught me. Still, it's never too late .....

Not any more but my wife & I both worked at Moorfoot in the 80s/90s and I remember having a similar view (sadly for her she's a Wednesdayite so she never enjoyed the view - did enjoy a great Bruce Springsteen concert at Bramhall Lane though).

Speedy.G !!!!!!!!!

What window? You lucky people that can look out of your window and see something. My desk faces a wall and if I look left, right and behind me I see more walls. So by next week when the clocks change I will leave home in the dark, return in the dark and work all day and see nothing of the daylight. Oh how I hate the winter. Think I need to put a nice sunny picture on my desktop.

Hi Nick,

Our Wednesdayites aren't so keen on it either! One of them has come all the way from Oz to support them too - he must be mad.

Speedy G - no one should have to work with no window. Having said that I used to when I worked for the Council - I used to have lots of nice pictures up of beaches & sunsets. I still have - nothing like a nice beach picture to brighten up the day.

Some of these are excellent to brighten up a dull desktop - and everyone asks if you've been there!

Oh my God

Here's my cousin on this thread to spoil everything. He was always quicker at running and with the ladies than me.

Oh no

Hi speedy.Wish I didn`t have a window. Out of mine I can see my oh so annoying, irritating, mad,unhinged,crazy, paranoid,wind up merchant, difficult, problematical, obsessed etc,etc (did I mention possibly vindictive?) neighbour.

No , he is not getting to me......HONEST!

Glenn

snails' pace, I would need a mirror to see that lot :-(

As it is I can see some nice window boxes with geraniums in them to the left, and a jewellry workshop to the right. If I stood up I could see a greasy spoon cafe as well.

[Deleted User]

Sorry Glenn. Didn`t mean to annoy . Perhaps I should have said "out of my window I can see my charming delightful neighbour who Yes, Is getting to me"

However speedy, sister dear, I am sure you know exactly what I mean.

Other than that at least I have a very pretty garden and yes lots and lots of rain.

Hewey

Now I've opened the curtains I can see downtown San Diego, but it's still dark!

Dragon Breath

Well that's killed this thread then. I can't see anyone topping that or do you know better?

[Deleted User]

Here in County Durham the rain has stopped and the sun is trying to break through, leaves everwhere, great......
So I walked to shop to take DVD back, 2 mile round trip, lovely day !!!!!!

Feel much better for it, save petrol as well,
would have run but saving myself for 10 miler tomorrow.....

[Deleted User]

Hewey,
wish I could draw back my curtains and see California.......any part will do !!!!!!!!

[Deleted User]

Hawaii or the Maldives would be nice.

When I open my curtains at home I see Greenwich cemetary. I suppose at least it's green.

[Deleted User]

well through the round window i can see the carpark
but through the square one on the left i can see straight into a room of the flat opposite.
Maybe i should move my computer

[Deleted User]

At home, out the front is the pub opposite and the road (nice, not) and out the back my overgrown garden trees and the sheep field.

[Deleted User]

Yeah Looney toon,
think I will move mine to the other side of the world.... :-)

[Deleted User]

Out of my window I can see that the grass needs mowing.

[Deleted User]

Its too wet Ricky, dont worry.....

[Deleted User]

Wait long enough and it'll be snowing then it will look beautiful again!!!

[Deleted User]

the first thing I see is Sugar, my office cat who is sitting in the window looking out at the millstream (I work in a converted mill) which is rising rapidly. It has a tendency to flood without too much provocation but thankfully I'm on the first floor. There is a lone male swan there (which is really what Sugar is looking at)and the willows overhanging still have their green leaves but most other trees are now turning to their very nice autumn colours.

And just at the moment, its not raining!!

Lake Geneva with the snow capped French alps beyond.....

I can go off you SB!

V jealous SB

[Deleted User]

Thanks SB for sharing that. I can see a car park, some waste ground, an industrial estate, an old aircraft hangar, and yes it is blue sky, just a break in the clouds, maybe I won't get soaked on tonights run after all.
