Maybe I should have made the question a little clearer. Do you see anything of interest from your window? Perhaps you can see the Coppice or a statue. Maybe a historical sight or building.

The only statue we have in Hyndborg is the Paul Mullin one at Moorhead School. If I go out the back I can see the Coppice.

Sure ya can :)

I can see the pool then some stuff that we should tidy up. After that I can see one of the cars. It's a jeep ans we still have the canoe on it from when we went collecting waterlillies and flowers from the lake for my partners parents renewal of their wedding vows service. Then the goat field with Heathers brothers goats playing in it. After that I see trees and just beyond the trees I see Ricky and Francines house. That reminds me I'm due to prune the trees soon. Out of the other window I can see another field with a small forest of trees beyond it. It's too hot to go out but the pool looks very inviting.

It's a while since I was in Accrington library but the last time I was there they did indeed have the winged messenger mercury.

I should have specified external statuary which one is able to see without entering buildings. The Hyndburn area is notoriously short of such things. We had a thread about it once. Nobody argued though and I don't think anybody offered a solution.

It still happens here only not for spinning. When friends and family come round with their littles ones we can often be found round the kitchen table glueing leaves and spinning jennys to paper making birds and butterflys :D

Isn't there a statue done by the same guy that did the mother and child on Blackburn bus station?

I see, a very big fountain - probably one of the biggest in the world, with approx 18 tons of water in the air at any one time (not sure on this, it's just what I've been told). The fountain seems to be switched off on fridays though, or is it really sunday... who knows!

A street that used to be cobbled......a row of terraced houses similar to ours.....cars parked outside their owners houses........some very pretty hanging baskets.......a rose bush with monster roses in a lovely claret colour.
A ragbag cat washing it's 'bits'.....and children playing out.....though they may be inside soon as it is just starting to rain.

When the trees lose their leaves I can see more of the playing field.
A pair of woodpidgeons are nesting in the tree on the left.

Well can see the tree aint a clue what it is. The burn with the ducks on the bank sunbathing. If on the verandra I can see the Ochil Hills with the blocks of fir trees. As for anything historical nope cant see owt like that but beats the view from the otherside of the block that looks onto the refinery candles.

What animals did you have when you lived on Laneside? I seem to remember you having some just can't remember that far back with much clarity. I was robbed and beaten in Greece luckily I lived but, memory took as big a beating as I did. I'd like to point out though that it wasn't Greeks that robbed me, it was English thugs on holiday that had no doubt run out of beer money.

I overlook a lodge where I get lots of ducks, coots, herons, swans and geese.Picture below, but not the best as was a dull day and everything looking a little untidy. Have painted me pier since then and got rid of the duck sh1t and that fern is now all green and in full bloom. This is the view from my back steps.

The change that has happened in the last 33 years I have lived here, is that they have built some houses approx 45% to the right which is now obscuring my view over Great Harwood .. only good news is that the trees have grown so much that I cannot see this new development. From upstairs and the loft can see Gt. Harwood tops and to the right, Pendle Hill.

Not as grand as your pool, etc., but love it .. :D

Laughin' my socks off here, the pool ain't grand. I'd rather have the nearby lake as close. The only wildlife near our little pool is the goats when they escape their field(daily LoL).

Thankyou for adding the photo.

Re: From your window
 
From my front window I can see the 2 houses opposite. I used to be able to see the fields behind them but they've both had extensions built so, alas, no more. Closer, there's the roses in my front garden.

From the side window I can see my small side garden and the pyracantha, which needs trimming, on the fence. I can also see next door's far-too-tall leylandii trees, no more than 12 feet away.

From the back windows there's the garden table and chairs with the big, blue, soggy umbrella up, all my potted plants on the patio, the lawn that I managed to cut yesterday before it rained, the flower border and the fence covered in rampant virginia creeper. The cat is asleep on one of the garden chairs (sheltered by the umbrella) and a blackbird is having a fight with a worm on the lawn. Two very fat wood pigeons are on the fence and keep indulging in unmentionable activities - doin' what comes naturally - and there are a dozen or so bees on the lavender.

Lol, Leylandi trees are always too tall if you ask me. Sounds like you enjoy gardening. The visitors to your garden sound like a very interesting crowd :-)

Just a word of caution. If you post pictures from your house people can figure out where you live quite easy. In fact it's not far from psting your address on here.. Would you do that? Add this to other snippets of info you innocently post and quite a good profile can be built up that can be used for shall we say.. slightly disshonest reasons..

Sorry piltymon (it's a great thread otherwise) but the thought came in my head so I thought better to share :)

When I look out of my window I see me... great reflection.. poor view :)

How's about describing the view but adding your favorite photo instead?

It sounds like a great place. I'm not thinking of retiring yet but, I do like the peace and(usually) quiet here on the farm. And, no, not the funny farm before anyone adds that LoL :D

I hadn't really thought of the security risk. I'm lucky enough to live in a place where we still leave our doors unlocked. Even when we go to the local Walmart (Asda type store) we still leave our doors unlocked. Nothing to steal but intruders would no doubt see the wrong end of a shotgun around here LoL.

I've never worried about people knowing where I live either. If people want to find you they will. Most peoples threats on forums like this are never carried out anyway. I'm sure you have nothing to worry about.

I have bored these poor forumers to death with my references to dog dirt in the past but they must excuse me now since this new member has asked :D
The playing field has several football pitches where matches are played regularly by juniors. On one day in May I counted 58 dogs visiting the field, and witnessed 4 of them leaving mess near the entrance - what happens mid field I am not well sighted enough to see clearly.
Fortunately there are instant fines for offenders now and these are being publicised as a deterrant.
I had a sig --pick up the poop.:s_pooh:
I am concerned about the health risks to those young footballers
(even thought I can't stand the 'sport' :D)

My father lives in a house with an open front garden where people let there dogs go Poop Poop. He goes out with a camera and openly lets them see him photograph them while their dogs are in "the act". I'm not sure how successful this method has been but I'm sure I wouldn't want to be photo'd in such a predicament. I doubt the photo's would stand up as evidence for several reasons but maybe posting them on the web may be a deterent. Then maybe a letter to the editor in the observer quoting the website may be an idea! I'll donate the website space for you if you'd like to try it.

I do think you have given wise advice here, so anyone who has not already had their whereabouts disclosed by themselves (or by local press) -dont do it - for your own peace of mind ,if nothing else.

She had our best interests in mind - it can get a bit scary living in a 'rough' area where burglaries are rife. ( I lived in Church for a while - nuff said?)

From our front deck we have the yard (most of the grass is brown from drought and heat), then the garden. On either side are the fruit trees and large populars, maples, crabapples, wild cherries and various landscaping bushes and roses/zinnias. Beyond that is a strip of large oaks and then the neighbor's cattle pasture.

From the back deck can see the lilacs, 100s of mountain laurels, the grapes vines and blackebberries then on to thick woods. In the winter can see through to the mountain top!

Is it proper to ask why you haven't seen their undies?

Re: From your window
 
Maybe they are very private about their undies and dry them indoors where no-one can see them.


If you look at the 'bin day' thread you'll see what I saw outside my window the other day! - RUBBISH!
:mad:

just seems a bit odd though , I remember my Grandma having no problems with her giant pink Bloomers on the line for all to see :D :D

I dry our underwear in the tumble dryer - mind you it's rarely dry enough here to put anything much out on a line! :D

I stopped putting my undies out on the washing line after my old neighbour knocked on my door with a handful of my knickers that he said he stole whilst drunk.
