The warmest outdoor pool I've ever been to (or indoor for that matter). Probably not heated I would guess, but then the day was 102 according to my car. I certainly feel that my happiness, health and vigor have been enhanced.

Wise words.

She likes to take pictures you see.

OK, so it's a Dr not Mr. Can't fault them for bettering themselves.

It's odd, cause you'd expect an american car to be NTSC

Surely this isn't coincidence?

Another failure in my ongoing battle to photograph the LA skyline.

He's like so cool!

I wonder what goes on behind these gates?

With the only celebrity I have seen since arriving (how dull).

Complete with classy fake palm trees.

Like Google maps only fuzzier.

A faded sign. Not as faded as the brand it's selling however, which has vanished forever.

On a portaloo in Kiveton.

We lived in the Post Office. The building with the turret is the school. It's what 100 yards away? I was frequently late.

Uninspiring ex-council house Didn't live there long before moving to university.

A red phone box succumbing to lichen.

Site of one of the world's earliest deep mines. Recently redeveloped as a park with these extremely popular fishing lakes. The listed Pit Head Baths are in the background. No one is quite sure what to do with them.

A disused steel mill overlooking the disused canal that leads to the disused mine.

The stretch of the Chesterfield canal that passes Kiveton is inexplicably called the Cuckoo Way.

Beighton walk marker in the ground.

On the site of the former colliery.

And all I got was the chance to look at these lame rocks.

There typically are none in burbank. Didn't think it would take a week to see some in Sheffield too. Stupid heatwave.

Grade II listed pile of bricks. The developers want to demolish it but can't. No one knows what to do with it.

In all their gothic, er, glory. Still probably the least ugly building in Kiveton.

At least it's good for squircling.

Now a load of fishing ponds. The ever lovely Kivo nestles in the background.

From behind, making it look quite rural.

Post swimming cossie return to fountains.

In a ball of steel. Like a watery General Zod

Of Status Quo. Shopping in Meadowhall.

Waiting around outside the crucible stage door when people started emerging. Stands to reason that they'd all be famous actors. Probably.

More Borg Cube than nightclub. It became a church. Which closed.
