As seen on the BBC in "The Life and Loves of a She Devil" many, many moons ago.

Very nice capture.

The theme song of which was sung by Christine Collister. One of _the_ great unknown voices of our time - well, nearly unknown, I've heard of her. Comes from the Isle of Man too.

I certainly wouldn't venture too close to the edge! Nice photograph, thanks for letting us see it.

Excellent framing and capture.

Steve, I agree about Christine Collister's talent. Managed to see the other half of the act in a bar in Camden a couple of years ago - he was excellent.

Super composition.
Remember when they put the whole building on rails and moved it back from the cliff edge a few years ago? I believe that it is under threat again.

Thank you all so much for your comments, much appreciated. Pete: Yes I do remember that very tricky moving operation, made the headlines all over the World, I think. And you are right, they are going to have to do it all over again in 5-10 years time! - John
