It's Wednesday (im sure) I had my tablets this morning, I feel ok.
Is it me or am I missing the point of something.
Could you run it by me again AD.

I must say that the top picture is a good one because we have not see one of the Castle from that angle before.

you are right Paul I go out on the tour boat sometimes and they are great views of the Castle and the whole of the port and the Western Hights.

i heard someone say on the port bus a few years back that the cliffs needed replastering
i must confess that i always thought that the chalk provided the white effect.
just goes to show.

I'm glad you like the angle, Vic. The objective was to picture the church facing the East-West line, and use it as image for an article I wrote and got published yesterday in British Columbia. It's titled: Britain's Light-tower Church in Dover.

Thanks for that, Vic. As the digital rights are with the publisher, I can give you the address. It's Suite 101 on internet. Just look under the History section, and you will se the article by its photo of our Church on Eastern Heights! Published 14 July.

Thanks for your favourable views. The articles can't exceed 800 words, so one has to explain the essence within this maximun figure. I'll be posting some more over the coming days on Suite 101, one at a time. Meanwhile I am becoming self-employed and have some gardening work to do. I purchased some gardening tools yesterday.
