    There are so many tall buildings around the world, but one thing remains important and that is the view. This is a beautiful view. The countryside in the UK is really like no other.

      Like anywhere else if you’re there too long it can get boring but I can see why it’d look nice to someone not from here.
      I’m just grateful I managed to travel and see different places. Some within the UK and some in other areas. Don’t get to go much but love it when I do. The Earth has some beautiful places. Makes me wonder what diversity is on other planets similar to ours are out there too as well as planets that we’d have to (space) suit up on. Such a vast universe with much potential. Shame space travel is currently a difficulty for us. Maybe we’ll find a solution one day. We still have this planet though unless we screw it up too much.
      I love mountains, forests, beaches and I briefly saw mountains in Colorado but not up close. Southern California was amazing I’d love to see sandy and rocky deserts in person, snow plains, volcanoes, much larger forests, warm seas and all sorts.
      It’s great if you get to visit here and see it with fresh eyes. Maybe it’d be nicer if i got to only visit it now and then.
      Sorry that was long. Started dreaming out loud. 😋

      No hope in going to the past come to the loving savior today
      Seek his Holy Spirit in prayer today he can give you peace confort and guidance today
      Romans 6:23
      For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
      Come to Jesus Christ today
      Jesus Christ is only way to heaven
      Repent and follow him today seek his heart Jesus Christ can fill the emptiness he can fill the void
      Heaven and hell is real cone to the loving savior today
      Today is the day of salvation tomorrow might be to late come to the loving savior today
      John 3:16-21
      16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
      Mark 1.15
      15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
      2 Peter 3:9
      The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
      Hebrews 11:6
      6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
      Jesus

    I've always been really interested in tall structures. Now I'm from the Netherlands, so this building I cannot see. I do however see the Mierlo TV tower nearly every day (and recently even went right up to it), and whenever I'm train traveling I can also spot the Gerbrandytoren in IJsselstein, our tallest structure. Always wanted to go in one of those towers and see the view.

    We can receive TV from that bad boy in Ripley , Derbyshire about 50 miles away. It's not the correct region for us but quite a few aerials point to it as it is stronger than Waltham in parts of our town.
