How pretty they are!<br />Looking forward to more pics, cos I'm sure there must be more.<br />I have a friend that travelled overseas and her favourite things to photograph were doors and windows, especially on ancient little houses. She has an incredible collection of pictures from all over Germany. She can't remember the names of the towns, but the doors and windows take her back.<br />CheersRobyn of Ozhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11830917656529638295noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1303875332081634127.post-59992546002236958122013-06-01T16:34:18.620+10:002013-06-01T16:34:18.620+10:00Ok, mind boggling at the Bourbon Maple Bacon Milks...Ok, mind boggling at the Bourbon Maple Bacon Milkshake flavour...... whoever thought that up was having a bad day.

Many moons ago drudging up the back stairs in cool buildings in Melbourne (United Manchester) I did note that many had hidden fire escapes in the back lanes...so perhaps they are not so obvious cos we have more back lanes?
