Power stations; this way to Algeria; monocultures; where can we put all these dead people; science and charity; mas castillos; owners look like their dogs.

How to catch a laurel wreath; where do Christmas presents really come from; Christmas fun for all the family; your pillows are the wrong shape.

Grass down the middle of the road; A fine turn of speed; Creative parking; Oompa Loompa-ness.

Each one laid individually by hand; Finding vessels; Pooch parks; Alembics; Road buildings.

More of Doris’s random snaps: Historic Paris Match editions; statues which might be from Lord of the Rings; non-drying blue paint; Christmas must-haves.

Some of Doris’s observations which don’t neatly fit into the daily blog.  In this post: the art deco delights of the Monumental Palace Hotel; more things made of tyres; something that you really didn’t know about Nottingham; and something you really didn’t want to know about St Bernard.
