Having just swanned past Didcot on a train, I reflected to myself how much I like power stations. I thnk they look excellent in a countryside setting. That is not a facetious comment. I like the contrast and interest of a large industrial complex in the simple elegance of the countryside.
If anyone reading this is still awake, do you agree? |

I have a thing for bridges. Clifton in Bristol and the Millau Viaduct are simply beautiful and so elegant. Albert Bridge in London is the prettiest along that stretch of river. Maidenhead Bridge is a lovely brick bridge and a wonder of its time having such shallow arches.
Yes, Im a bridge perv! |

I once had a chat about the finer points of the Buick based Rover V8 engine at a swingers party with a guy wearing his wife's dress, while she was getting jiggy with another girl on the bed next to us.
I really enjoyed finding a fellow geek/petrol head who understood the pleasure of hearing the throaty rumble of a small block V |

To be honest I like the contrast of the old power stations too and chemical works. I used to love seeing Fiddler's Ferry and Stanlow oil refinery in the distance  |

"Pylons however - now they are f-king ugly!! "
Ooh no. They are imposing and slightly frightening. Never been easy around pylons since watching a BBC children's drama programme called "The Changes" as a child |

As a kid I always thought they liked like the skeletons of robots and I found them scary. There was one near my aunt. When it rained hard we would stand underneath it to hear it hit as the rain hit the lines |

"Environmental issues aside I do enjoy the dichotomy of the two. An unnatural collision of man and nature.
Is man not natural?"
Sure, maybe I should have said man made, but I think you knew what I meant, no? |

Did you get the type of locomotive and take down it's number, while drinking weak lemon drink from your flask. |

"Cricket cricket cricket oh and bloody fly fishing or any type of fishing "
I've just taking up sea fishing. I've recently been swotting up on the best lures to use. Fascinating really, I believe that Dexter Wedges are the best for beach fishing for mackerel |

I used to like runcorn bridge, only because after a days cycling it was 10 miles from home |

I do love a huge chimney, particularly the ones that greet you northbound into Yorkshire.
As for pylons, I find them fascinating - strings of them across the countryside reminds me of War of the Worlds. I like this subject |
