Pretty in their own right, but I'd rather be living where some of you guys are!

This is a cool thread, it's a shame it died before. Hopefully it won't die again this time.

Here's my little corner of the world, Summerville SC.

From the Isle of Man, UK

I know this is a super old post but I got excited web I saw this. My mom has always wanted to go to the Isle of Man! I always thought it was kind of a random place to dream of going. It does look beautiful.

Brick Lane is an East London Street that runs from Tower Hamlets to Bethnal Green. It has become famous for it's curry houses, graffiti and diverse culture - particulalry the variety of food offered by the street traders at weekends.
It is a vibrant, colourful and fun place to visit - just to people watch....

A growing trend here in the UK seems to be the 'Vintage Coffee Shop' - which is basically a 'Junk Shop' that sells coffee and cakes - as well as all the furniture you sit on and crockery you drink from

Thanks Eeyoresny - we had a great day in Highgate park and then the East cemetary.
I am planning to go back to visit the 'West-Side' cemetary which looks fascinating but you can only go in that side on a guided tour due to the larger structures and some dangerous areas.
The website states 'The Egyptian Avenue and the Circle of Lebanon (topped by a huge Cedar of Lebanon) feature tombs, vaults and winding paths dug into hillsides'
(This one is not my photo BTW)

A couple more from the East side:-

Carl Marx - although he lived in London - most of Marx's journalistic writing was as a European correspondent for the New York Daily Tribune

This was artist Patrick Caulfield (with a wicked sense of humour right to the end!)

This was writer Douglas Adams - best known as the author of The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - note the pot of pens as opposed to flowers

Thanks for the photos! Would love to visit the UK...someday! For now, I must get my "UK fix" at Epcot!
