Dave, you have the most beautiful office window view in the world, simply spectacular!!!

Do you have any more shots of Majorca by the way? I've been there on holiday when I was younger, and also to Menorca :D

Spectacular Dave, thanks for sharing.
My ha'penny: d'you get any pics on the way in or out of Nice, of Monte Carlo?
I have some Monaco scenery loaded and would love to see the real version.
