Steve:
Beautiful pics. I especially like the Christmas card! I tried that the first year I had Monkey. He was just about as pleased with the idea as yours seems to be!

I can't recall ever visiting Colchester, so it was interesting to see pictures of the area. The countryside and the lake look lovely. But what are the buildings?

steve, thanks for sharing. colchester looks beautiful.
we have so few historical buildings here (some would argue that mind you - but one or two per town i think is 'few').
anyway. the pictures are lovely.

Nice pictures, Rambo! I have only visited Colchester once but I know it is an interesting historic town. I beleive there is a substantial Roman history there too.
We have a lot of Tudor buildings in this part of Kent (I'll have to get the camera out) including my 'lottery-dream house' a mile down the road.
I'm looking forward to seeing more pictures of your part of Essex!

Thanks for the descriptions of the pictures Steve - I had the first one down as a church. How wrong can you be?!
I love the look of Tudor buildings, but they're pretty thin on the ground round here. Roman remains are something we do have plenty of however. Fascinating.

Hi Steve
A trip down memory lane for me as I worked in Colchester for a while - great to see the sites so clearly again.
Love the card, Merry Christmas to one and all
