Dolls House
We have featured No 7 Castle Hill before. In the old stables, one room has been set out with period toys, and this delightfully detailed dolls house. In the corner you can just see an old dolls pram.

Swinging in the street
This swing and the flowers around the base of the tree in St Phillips Street add a friendly feel to the neighbourhood.

Chimneys #2 + moon
A final 'mooning' shot and another in the chimney series. This is an old chimney in Richmond Hill.

Moon + tower
The attractive red roof of the old Erica Building has a cute little turret feature, and the moon nestled up to it...

Buffalo Bills
Buffalo Bill made a name for itself as a restaurant serving high quality meat at very reasonable prices. They became so popular that, in addition to the original branch in Westering, they opened a large one on the beachfront. They also do a really good buffet.

Moon + Light (with bird thrown in for good measure!)
Another in the lamp post series. This one is very close to the previous one with the cameras, on Pollock Beach, but altogether more attractive.... the seagull thinks so too!

A Necessary accessory to the lamp post
Another in our ongoing series on lamp posts around town.... this one at Pollock Beach is not the most attractive, but it is certainly functional. It has strong halogen spotlights to shed light onto the beach and rocks , in front of the Something Good Roadhouse, so that even at night, this attractive scene is visible, and you can safely walk around down there.At the same time, CCTV cameras keep an eye out for muggers and other undesirables who like…

well… autumn gave way to winter rather quickly!
Westbourne Road, Saturday night, on our way to eat out. In a stroke of genius, Max elected to go to the Carolina Spur in Greenacres Mall, we were able to park undercover, and go in and out without drowning or freezing to death.

Burnt Out
Such a shame... another historic cottage in Port Elizabeth, neglected by the owner and rented out to Nigerian drug dealers, has burned down. GRRRRRRRR.

Sculptor at work
Graham Jones is one of the really good Eastern Cape sculptors. He has almost finished a wonderful commission which is to be placed at the East London Museum. Luckily he lives just around the corner from us, so I was able to get a photo of it before it leaves P.E., all 4 and a half tons of it! It is made of cast iron with all sorts of fascinating bits and pieces attached. This is another in a series…
