Pics from where you live

Yeah just remember to open the windows first !

Thought you might know the hotel, we were last there in 2019 and before that sometime in the 1980’s.
Very fond memories.

-14 in Denver yesterday afternoon. Finished shoveling snow an decided to practice outside on the deck. Tried Stiches suggestion of fingerless gloves. Played a couple bars of 12 bar blues. Stayed on B7th chord for one measure too long. Wife had to free me up with her hair dryer. :grin:

Minus 14F on the porch! :cold_face:
That is bold! I only play on that porch when I am in the mountains in the summer.
I will be there most weekends in January and February, I will play inside by the fire and wrap my guitar in a big plastic bag with a wet towel all night.

Yesterday a chair was blown clean off a lift with someone in it! Fortunately not hurt, amazingly. Subzero and 80mph winds, why on earth were they skiing?

About 30mins walk from where I live.

The breakwall at the mouth of the Hastings River. Tourists are encouraged to decorate the rocks with holiday memories.

I live about 1km from these places. Wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.

Hi from the Berkshire village in the UK which has been my home for the last 21 years. It’s a fairly quintessential British village with an old church, primary school, a duck pond, cricket pitch, village hall and several pubs: 3 in easy walking distance, two an extended walk, and three others that are probably a short drive away.

As you can imagine, a lot of village life revolves around the pubs, but also the church, village halls, school, and local cricket and kids football teams. There’s a lot of organised events including a couple of outdoor fêtes, a small music festival in the summer, and a couple of parties every Christmas, and a village pantomime which has been put on every two years since 2003 (except for 2020/21 due to the pandemic).

There’s also a nearby country park with beautiful walks around lakes which used to be old quarries, and they hold regular events there too.

I had to dig around for photos, so some of these are quite old. The snow pictures are from a few years ago when it snowed quite heavily in the village. The beautiful old white building is my favourite local pub which is opposite the church, and is actually owned and managed by the church.

As some of you know, I’m actually currently living in Singapore. Currently I’m back in the UK visiting family for Xmas and New Year.

Cheers,

Keith

Given I’m living in Singapore at the moment, I thought I should post some photos from there too. My problem here is I have taken so many over the last year, selecting which ones to use is tricky.

So here’s a selection from my photo album of the last year which has nearly 900 photos and videos.

Thank you for creating the post! It is such a great treat =)

Used to take this bus to work, passing through the bridge every morning.

Not natively Singaporean (I am Malaysian Chinese). Kind of struggling right now honestly but I will do my best. Hopefully I am able to hunt for a job in UK and moving there next year.

We’re in the depths of the dark winter at the moment

We do get the odd day of sunshine in the summer, I get more photos of the scenery than the fish I catch though @CT :joy:


I like to wrap up and get out to the lakes on my bike most of the year though
