In the Fenton on Woodhouse Lane. This is Cheddar Valley Cider. When she poured it I couldn't believe the colour, it was bright orange. But tasted flat, and a bit cardboardy.

Don't non-sparkling ciders taste, well, flat?

It tasted like a beer/cider hybrid. No zest or zing to it. Murky.

Ok, a few more of Leeds. The light wasn't so great for these, and they are a bit wonky. But I do love that city, despite its flaws.

Depending on your camera you might want to look at the ISO settings so you can shoot flashless.

Inside the Corn Exchange. We were the first 'customers' of the day.

Had it just opened or had it been like that a while? That looks depressing.

^It was 9am, first people of the day. There were bouncer type people at the front for some reason, but Laz gave them a hard stare.

my iPad can only load one photo per post, but I'm going to post a few photos from my Death Valley trip so far.

My suite at the Manson Family compound (Barker Ranch) last night.

I stayed in the intact building on the right, the destroyed building in the lower left is where Charles Manson was captured in October 1969.

WTF is that?! And why would you want to go there Grisha? Looks like a huge dump.

The_Face_of_Boo: Between what you and Oskar Freysinger have said about Lebanon, I understand your resasons for getting out.

Because spending the night alone at the Manson Family compound in Death Valley is impossibly cool

and what do you mean "dump"? The facilities there were first-class!

I'm sure all victims of murderers think their killer's homes are impossibly cool too.

Tsk - that toilet roll holder clearly needs a good pruning, and I'm not even going to ask what those rocks get used for.

Very interesting though: I'd definitely go there. Looking forward to seeing more!

I believe the rocks were to throw at unwanted onlookers... :wink:

You wouldn't be able to lob one very far if you're in the middle of a giant, painful dump though.
