Uh oh, I’ve been watching too much #LongWayUp and now I want to learn to ride a motorbike again. It happened after #longwayround #LongWayDown and #longwayhome… I hope it passes. 🤣

Huge fan of #CharleyBoorman and #EwanMcGregor's #LongWayRound and #LongWayDown adventures, so it's been a "fan boy" experience to watch the more mature pair ride their electric #HarleyDavidson bikes on the #LongWayUp on #AppleTV! 🏍️🏍️

The thing is, while I'm watching #TheWhiteOliveTree, I'm also watching #LongWayDown with my parents.

And when you might want to think about the one "oh, this is fiction, people wouldn't do something like that", the other series tells you, yes, people would do something terrible like this, they actually did worse.

Bath from the top of Bath Abbey's tower.

In cathedral and related buildings, there are often signs offering a tour of the tour, just ask [some person]. Not being fond of steps nor finding people, I pass.
But Bath Abbey is sneaky. Just inside the entrance is a little desk with a sign about their tower tours, and a nice person behind the counter looking expectantly at you. Also, a declaration with a long list of health conditions that you have to agree you don't have.

#Bath #Somerset #HighLow #LongWayDown

Looking down at street bordered by yellow stone buildings with black roofs.  In a top corner is a black shadow and at the bottom, either corner are edge of stone, from the parapet on top of the tower.

The most obvious building in the street is on the corner and have a curved facade. It's three storeys  high, judging from the three levels of windows (all multi-paned with white frames and dark glass, the upper level are smaller) Between the windows are bricks are ground level, and columns on the upper levels. One side is shaped like a tower, topped with a stone gazebo-like thing over a skylight. There is a similar one of the far side of the adjoining building, which has a central dome.
For all that the top of the roofs of buildings can be seen, there's not much sense of height.

In the foreground is large reverse-V shaped black roof with stone edging and two spires at the visible corners. The roof of the abbey building below.

And this is the view from the top

#LongWayDown

Looking down: there's a black, rectangular roof, with a garden that seems to be mostly leafless trees (which look like weird white seaweed/coral things) and palm. There's a stone path leading a area with tables. Patches of what might be lawn look like moss. In another direction,  A sweep of steeps and a long wooden  ramp lead out to a car park. There's another maybe stone building towards the back but it's obscured by the white tree brances.

Inside the tower, looking down the central shaft.

#ShotTower #Hobart #LongWayDown

Looking down the shaft. Inside the tower, the stairs spiral up against the wall so there is stone on one side. On the inner side, there are wooden railing supplanted with wire mesh.  They appear here as alternating rows of timber, mesh and gaps.
Eight vertical poles support the wooden walkway/stairs and forming an octagonal central shaft. At the base is a wooden platform with a rectangular tank in the middle.

Der doch dramatisch enttäuschte Glasfaser-Drücker soll mal froh sein, dass ich die Tür erst gar nicht aufgemacht habe.
