I'll have to be carefully that if I take a picture of a derelict building I don't become responsible for repairing it
I think i'd clear it up any way, if id taken the shot - sensible really.

@ building remark. lol

I think the shot was an outstanding one that week, wherever the bottle ended up.. glass comes from sand does not it? and POTW has varied each week and is rather intresting. It will stay intresting too I'd say (until bird pics start getting placed constantly ) but feel, as said by others, a reason/comment on why potw is, potw!

but Chris, very virtuous of you, you stuck that neck out faaaar!
