The view or two from my "office"

[Wing Nut]

HMNZS Philomel has pretty sweet views bro, but not open to the public AFAIK.

Devonport Wharf and village has some spec views over the harbour and Auckland City as you'd expect given it's next door to the Navy base.

We use to live in Birkenhead and Northcote Point jetty had great views to the city from under the bridge. Walking to the Birkenhead shops, we had views of the upper harbour and city which is picturesque in itself. Miss that.

I believe that was actually built first. Same architect.

Eltham Palace, London.

Are you saying the Newcastle bridge that looks like the Sydney Harbour bridge is designed by the same people who did Eltham Palace?

Same architect as Sydney Harbour Bridge.

Eltham Palace was the view from my office.

Yes, it's very cool! Interesting designs in the other rooms too. Glad I got to see it before my EH membership expires.

Currently in the Ambassador lounge in Changi T2 waiting for our Etihad A380. It is a small lounge but not really busy at 19:44.

Food offerings are limited but ok.There is a small roped off area for F and
Residence pax. Unfortunately the seats shown look better than they feel as they are too upright.
