I love this view. You see it when you walk from the trainstation to get the bus to my parents! It really encapsulates the very best of the place I grew up.

the cheerfully named Gravesend, Kent.
Never been there, apart from the bit where I popped out of my Mum.

PlantHead already posted a good picture of Gravesend showing the Station (& the Railway Bell & the Somerset Arms where I spent too much time as a lad!). Odd we are both in Dubendorf now.
