Yeah? Just burn up I presume because a flying container might have a couple of aerodynamic probs that would need to be tweaked.

Non-degree'ed structural engineer. I do all the drawings and put everything together in a pretty picture, then an actual PSE stamps them for about 10x what I get.

^ Those are nice photos, Fluff. Is the name of the castle going to remain a secret?

Here's a strange-looking group of buildings - also a secret, unless you are curious enough to click on the link to a 3-min video below:-

It's always a shame to see an old building go up in flames, as this hotel has done today:-



At least Britain still has a lot of these white stucco terraces left, and tbh they are not my favourite style.

This pic is a longshot that also shows a pretty typical seafront street in Britain. This was how architects originally responded to demand when visiting Britain´s cold coasts for pleasure first became popular (round about the 1800s I think).



As well as the cliffs of stucco terraces, they would often build a modest row of cabins/toilets/storerooms just above the beach itself, and then of course (front centre) a more frivolous, ornate building which I suppose was a nod to the sedate fun that was permissible at that straightlaced time. It was a king (George IV says wikipedia) who started that fashion, with his Royal Pavilion at Brighton:



Seafront architecture is a whole subgenre to itself. Anyone got some interesting pics?

I supposed when one lives where it is cold and wet one might as well holiday where it is just as cold but more agreeably wet.
