          Pace has it, well done! The decadent capital of Brunei. I went there on a UN mission about 7 years ago. Very interesting but totally badly governed. Don't get me started, otherwise this will end up in the Temp forum

          Your turn, Pace!

                <b>Dunmore Pineapple</b>

                Described as the "most bizarre building in Scotland" this is a summer house built in 1761 with a first floor of cantilevered masonry in the shape of a realistic, prickly pineapple which is 45 feet high. Four chimneys are disguised as stone vases on top of an adjoining wall because the summer house was heated by a furnace which circulated hot air through cavities in the wall. There are 16 acres of gardens with an orchard and the property has been restored by the National Trust for Scotland - and can be rented as a holiday home!<hr>Go Umf... (btw, did you just google for pineapple building? )

                  ok, I did, so what?

                  No, I did not! Really KVH, you still keeping score?

                  Where is this? City and building please.

                  At least the pic is in decent size for once!

                          Geez, yep. Had hoped it'd be a bit longer

                          Die Neue Wache indeed. The pic is taken by a friend of mine with his self-made 360 degrees camera. The sides are actually at yer back.

                          I just bought this, 150x90 cm, but the wifey won;t let me put it up on the wall
