Come Fly with Me
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
If you can use some exotic booze
There's a bar in far Bombay
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
Come fly with me, let's float down to Peru
In llama-land there's a one-man band
And he'll toot his flute for you
Come fly with me, let's take off in the blue
Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide
Starry-eyed
Once I get you up there
I'll be holding you so near
You may hear
Angels cheer, 'cause we're together
Weather-wise, it's such a lovely day
Just say the words and we'll beat the birds
Down to Acapulco Bay
It is perfect for a flying honeymoon, they say
Come fly with me, let's fly, let's fly away
Once I get you up there
Where the air is rarefied
We'll just glide…
This is the now disused Trinity House Buoy Shed alongside the river Hull. It was once obviously a prestigious building and has clearly seen better days. There is a detailed history of the building here - historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1197668
This beautiful Grade II-listed building is on the quayside at Boscastle in North Cornwall. According to British Listed Buildings the cottage dates from around the mid-1800s, possibly with earlier origins.
Boscastle harbour is a natural inlet protected by two stone harbour walls built in 1584 and is the only significant harbour for 20 miles along the north Cornish coast. Once a small port importing limestone and coal, and exporting slate and other local produce, these days it is simply home to a handful of small inshore fishing boats and a couple of small pleasure craft.

I was a little girl
Alone in my little world
Who dreamed of a little home for me
I played pretend between the trees
And fed my house guests bark and leaves
And laughed in my pretty bed of green
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest swing
I had a dream
Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park
I asked God who I'm supposed to be
The stars smiled down on me
God answered in silent reverie
I said a prayer and fell asleep
I had a dream
That I could fly from the highest tree
I had a dream
Now I'm old and feeling gray
I don't know what's left to say about this life I'm willing to leave
I lived it full and I lived it well
There's many tales I lived to tell
I'm ready now, I'm ready now
I'm ready now to fly from the highest wing
I had a dream
I was a little girl
Alone in my little world
Who dreamed of a little home for me

Pulteney Bridge, built in 1774 crosses the River Avon in Bath, England.
Designed by Robert Adam in a Palladian style, it is one of four bridges having shops built across its full span on both sides.
The bridge is a Grade I listed building.
The Pulteney Weir (or just “the Weir” for short) was built in the late Middle Ages (by 1603) to prevent the river from flooding the town of Bath. It was completely rebuilt in the early 1970s and given the horseshoe shape.
The Grade I Listed Pontcysyllte Aqueduct which carries the Llangollen Canal across the River Dee, in Wrexham County Borough, Wales.
The 18-arched stone and cast-iron structure is for use by narrowboats and was completed in 1805 having taken ten years to design and build. It is 12 ft wide and is the longest aqueduct in Great Britain and the highest canal aqueduct in the world. A footpath runs alongside the watercourse on one side.
The aqueduct was to have been a key part of the central section of the proposed Ellesmere Canal, an industrial waterway that would have created a commercial link between the River Severn at Shrewsbury and the Port of Liverpool on the River Mersey.
Although a less expensive construction course was surveyed further to the east, the westerly high-ground route across the Vale of Llangollen was preferred because it would have taken the canal through the mineral-rich coalfields of North East Wales.
Only parts of the canal route were completed because the expected revenues required to complete the entire project were never generated. Most major work ceased after the completion of the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct in 1805.

Our guided walk started in Lister Lane cemetery- and what a stunning place, such an abundance of wild flowers. The Cemetery has been recognised as a Significant Cemetery in Europe, one of only 13 in the UK, putting it alongside such famous cemeteries as Highgate in London! www.visitcalderdale.com/see-and-do/lister-lane-cemetery/
I'm no seaman (stop sniggering) and I don't really know my starboard from my port side when it comes to ships but one thing I do know is that this old rust bucket was definitely listing.
And for those who don't know what "listing" means I am about to educate you (or at least Wikipedia will).
"'Listing' is a nautical term to describe when a vessel takes on water and tilts to one side."
You're welcome. :)
** Thanks to zzapback and caterham.chris who reliably inform me in their comments below that this is the 'Royal Iris', a former Mersey Ferry, that apparently has had the Beatles perform on it's deck and has hosted Queen Elizabeth. Makes it all the more a pity to see it in this sorry state.

Hej, da bin ich wieder! Nach unserem verregneten Sommerurlaub wollten wir doch noch einen kleinen besonderen Urlaub machen. Auf unserer To-Do -Liste steht schon seit Jahren Ägypten und so entschieden wir, uns in dieses Abenteuer zu werfen. Diese Reise entfaltete sich als unvergessliche Erfahrung. Nach drei Tagen in Hurghada brachen wir nach Luxor auf. Von dort aus setzten wir unsere Reise auf einem Schiff fort, das gemächlich den Nil entlang nach Assuan tuckerte. In Assuan erwartete uns ein ganz besonderes Erlebnis: die Fahrt auf einer traditionellen Feluke. Als der Kapitän meinem Mann das Steuer überreichte, leuchteten seine Augen vor Freude. Unter der strahlenden Sonne glitten wir sanft über den majestätischen Nil, während die Welt um uns herum still zu stehen schien. Die Sonne brach sich in glitzernden Reflexionen auf der Wasseroberfläche, während wir uns langsam der Insel Elephantine näherten. Vogelrufe erfüllten die Luft, Reiher, Kormorane und kleine Wasserhühner ließen ihr Gefieder in der Sonne trocknen.
Im Hintergrund seht ihr das Mausoleum des Aga Khan. Es ist ein architektonisches Juwel, das auf einem Hügel in der Nähe von Assuan thront. Es ist die letzte Ruhestätte des Aga Khan III. Dieses Mausoleum, das oft als "Taj Mahal des Nahen Ostens" bezeichnet wird, fasziniert mit seiner eleganten Architektur und seiner friedvollen Lage.
"Hey, I'm back again! After our rainy summer vacation, we wanted to have another special little getaway. Egypt has been on our to-do list for years, so we decided to embark on this adventure. This journey unfolded as an unforgettable experience. After three days in Hurghada, we set off for Luxor. From there, our journey continued on a leisurely boat along the Nile to Aswan. In Aswan, a very special experience awaited us: a ride on a traditional felucca. When the captain handed the steering wheel to my husband, his eyes lit up with joy. Under the radiant sun, we glided gently along the majestic Nile, while the world around us seemed to stand still. The sun sparkled in shimmering reflections on the water's surface as we slowly approached Elephantine Island. Bird calls filled the air, herons, cormorants, and small waterfowl basked in the sun, drying their feathers.
In the background, you can see the Mausoleum of Aga Khan. It's an architectural gem perched on a hill near Aswan. It's the final resting place of Aga Khan III. This mausoleum, often referred to as the 'Taj Mahal of the Middle East,' captivates with its elegant architecture and peaceful location."
This was the first shot I took when joining Muddy Boots and Pete Rowbottam for an evening trip to Lytham to capture this wreck of "Celestial Dawn", before it is eventually dragged off to Liverpool for a refit and makeover!
Whilst the light here isn't as spectacular as the sunset a little later, the yacht itself actually looks more forelorn as it is listing sideways more as the tide was lower when we first got there. I also liked a little more of the foreground mud leading to the boat itself. Sorry for posting one more of this, but I liked it!
Looking through the Grade II* Listed Exchequergate during the 2014 Lincoln Christmas Market. In Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
Lincoln Christmas Market, held in historic uphill area around the Castle, Cathedral, Bailgate and The Lawn. It is one of the largest Christmas markets in Europe, attracting up to 250,000 visitors over the four day event. It was first held in 1982 after a group of city councillors visited Neustadt an der Weinstrasse (Lincoln's twin town) and were impressed by the their Christmas Market. Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
Exchequergate was built around 1350 links Bailgate/Castle Hill with Minster Yard/Lincoln Cathedral. It was originally the inner of two gates, the outer gate at the west end of St. Mary Magdalenes Church was pulled down around 1800.
Exchequergate is made up of three arches with early brick and stone vaulting and polygonal turrets. Originally the gate housed four shops within the piers, with doorways to them from the central and side passages. There were openings to the shops as windows within the passages. In the 18th century it housed an inn, the Great Tom.
FLASHBACK!
ANTELOPE CANYON
PAGE, ARIZONA
A bucket list that remains unfulfilled!
Two nieces of mine decided to take me to Antelope Canyon when they found out it was in my bucket list. We flew to Las Vegas then drove to Arizona together with their folks and another sister. The weather looked fine but when we got there, one of the guides told us we couldn't go because there was a flashflood. Apparently, 2 of 7 photographers lost their lives in the canyon from a flashflood a few years prior. We were told we can wait so we decided to drive around the area and each time we went back, we were told, it was a no go! Under those threatening clouds was where I wanted to be! Finally, it was too late in the afternoon, and we had to drive back to Las Vegas!
This trip remains in my Bucket List!
Thank you so much for stopping by and for the kind comments and favs. They are very much appreciated!
The beautiful Church of St Mary and All Saints at Fotheringhay in Northamptonshire is noted for containing a mausoleum to leading members of the Yorkist dynasty of the Wars of the Roses.
The work on the present church, which sits on a slight hill overlooking the River Nene, was begun by Edward III who also built a college as a cloister on the church's southern side. After completion in around 1430, a parish church of similar style was added to the western end of the collegiate church with work beginning in 1434. It is the parish church which still remains.
The present Grade I-listed church is named in honour of St Mary and All Saints, and has a distinctive tall tower dominating the local skyline. The church is Perpendicular in style and although only the nave, aisles and octagonal tower remain of the original building it is still in the best style of its period. I particularly like the delicate flying buttresses. The church is regarded by Simon Jenkins as one of England's Thousand Best Churches.
The chancel was pulled down after the college was dissolved in 1553 following the Dissolution of the Monasteries. A grammar school was founded in its place which lasted until 1859.
The white List West lighthouse is located on the Ellenbogen peninsula on Sylt. It was built by the Kingdom of Denmark and is not only the northernmost lighthouse, but also the northernmost building in Germany. It is also the oldest lighthouse on the west coast of Schleswig-Holstein and the first lighthouse in Germany made of cast iron.
Leuchtturm List West
Der weiße Leuchtturm List West liegt auf der Sylter Halbinsel Ellenbogen. Er wurde vom Königreich Dänemark erbaut und ist nicht nur der nördlichste Leuchtturm, sondern auch das nördlichste Gebäude Deutschlands. Außerdem ist er der älteste Leuchtturm an der Westküste Schleswig-Holsteins und der erste aus Gusseisen hergestellte Leuchtturm in Deutschland.
St Laurence's Church is one of very few surviving Anglo-Saxon churches in England that does not show later medieval alteration or rebuilding and is listed as a Grade I building.
This building is of exceptional archaeological value and until the discovery, in 1856, of its ecclesiastical origin by Canon Jones of Bradford, had been in use as a "skull house" and then as a free School. Saxon, C10. (Some authorities give C8 but present appearance suggests the later date.) Consisting of:- Nave (25ft long x 13ft wide) Chancel (13ft long x 10ft 6in. wide) and north porch. Feature of building is its great height in relation to area. (Historic England)
Guys, this Castle is a popular tourist spot in Perak, Malaysia. It has always been 'listed' as the most haunted place in Malaysia. So much so, that when we passed by here (we never intend to actually visit it) my sister strictly prohibited me to even go near and capture this mysterious place!! sigh!! She was worried as we had a baby and kids (my nieces..) with us!!
I was really upset coz I could not explore this wonderful place!! Maybe next time when I go without my family members (sometimes outing with family members just suck becoz of this kinna problems.. LOL!!) I can actually get my camera working!!
This was shot just outside my sis's car, so sorry guys it does not show the whole castle. There were trees & plants obstructing the view so I had to crop it!!
Here are the details 'plucked' from Wikipedia;
Kellie's Castle (sometimes also called Kellie's Folly) is located near Batu Gajah, and is about 20 minutes' drive from Ipoh, Perak, Malaysia. The unfinished, ruined mansion, was built by a Scottish planter called William Kellie Smith. According to differing accounts, it was either a gift for his wife or a home for his son.
Unfortunately for Smith, tragedies struck soon after the construction of the Kellas House began. A virulent strain of the Spanish flu spread from Europe to Asia soon after World War I ended in Europe, killing many of the workers in the Kellas Estate. Another seventy workers constructing Smith's dream castle also became victims of the flu. Smith, who had already spent a fortune on his house, lost a lot of money because of this.
In the end, Kellas House, later known as Kellie's Castle or even Kellie's Folly to some, was never completed. William Kellie Smith himself died of pneumonia during a short trip to Portugal in 1926. His heartbroken wife decided to pack up and return home to Scotland selling the estate and Kellie's Castle to a British company called Harrisons and Crosfield. Descendants of the Tamil labourers brought over to Malaya to work on the mansion still live nearby even now. Kellie's Castle is now a popular local tourist attraction and was used as a setting in the 1999 film Anna and the King.
When one thinks of legendary racing cars of the late 1950s, words like sleek, sexy, and dramatic come to mind. Cambridge manufacturer Brian Lister’s offering was all of the above, but it found its groove in rather unique contours that nonetheless gave it the popular nickname “Knobbly”.
Designed by Brian Lister to meet windshield height regulations set by the FIA, while also minimizing the frontal area of a car powered by a rather large three-liter Jaguar engine, its aluminum body featured a large central bump covering the engine, which fell off in wide grooves on either side and aft, and incredibly curvaceous streamlined fenders and headrest. The result was an athletic-appearing, distinctive racing car that took the sporting world by storm when it made its debut in February 1958.
The Grade I Listed Lincoln Cathedral, in Lincoln, Lincolnshire.
Building commenced in 1088 and continued in several phases throughout the medieval period. It was reputedly the tallest building in the world for 238 years (1311–1549) before the central spire collapsed in 1549 and was not rebuilt.
It is highly regarded by architectural scholars; the eminent Victorian writer John Ruskin declared: "I have always held... that the cathedral of Lincoln is out and out the most precious piece of architecture in the British Isles and roughly speaking worth any two other cathedrals we have."
Remigius de Fécamp, the first bishop of Lincoln, moved the Episcopal seat there between 1072 and 1092. Up until then St. Mary's Church in Stow was considered to be the "mother church" of Lincolnshire (although it was not a cathedral, because the seat of the diocese was at Dorchester Abbey in Dorchester-on-Thames, Oxfordshire).
Bishop Remigius built the first Lincoln Cathedral on the present site, finishing it in 1092 and then dying on 9 May of that year, two days before it was consecrated. In 1141, the timber roofing was destroyed in a fire. Bishop Alexander rebuilt and expanded the cathedral, but it was mostly destroyed by an earthquake about forty years later, in 1185. The earthquake was one of the largest felt in the UK. The damage to the cathedral is thought to have been very extensive.
After the earthquake, a new bishop was appointed. He was Hugh de Burgundy of Avalon, France, who became known as St Hugh of Lincoln. He began a massive rebuilding and expansion programme. Rebuilding began with the choir (St. Hugh's Choir) and the eastern transepts between 1192 and 1210. The central nave was then built in the Early English Gothic style.
The cathedral is the 3rd largest in Britain after St Paul's and York Minster, being 484 feet by 271 feet. Until 1549 the spire was reputedly the tallest medieval tower in Europe, though the exact height has been a matter of debate. Accompanying the cathedral's large bell, Great Tom of Lincoln, is a quarter-hour striking clock.
The two large stained glass rose windows, the matching Dean's Eye and Bishop's Eye, were added to the cathedral during the late Middle Ages. The former, the Dean's Eye in the north transept dates from the 1192 rebuild begun by St Hugh, finally being completed in 1235.
After the additions of the Dean's eye and other major Gothic additions it is believed some mistakes in the support of the tower occurred, for in 1237 the main tower collapsed. A new tower was soon started and in 1255 the Cathedral petitioned Henry III to allow them to take down part of the town wall to enlarge and expand the Cathedral, including the rebuilding of the central tower and spire.
In 1290 Eleanor of Castile died and King Edward I of England decided to honour her, his Queen Consort, with an elegant funeral procession. After her body had been embalmed, which in the 13th century involved evisceration, Eleanor's viscera were buried in Lincoln cathedral, and Edward placed a duplicate of the Westminster tomb there.
