Tiny summer house in Norway:
I was lucky enough to stay in a traditional summer house when I visited Norway. The interior was similar to this; just so nice with a fire going in the evening, and no-one around for miles, just the bears, wolves and trolls...
The camping pods at long mynd have a certain charm
Best A+A thread so far.
Yeah but somebody sez that every week, Mol! 
Wooohoooooooo. Thread of the week. Every week
I'm happy that people enjoy it so much. So much so that've even started demanding it every week if it's not up straight away! 
Like they are somehow entitled to it.
Another picture of the Platform at Oxford Road. Lurverly. I'm sure most of the people getting a train there don't notice the beautifully sculpted benches and stuff, all designed by one of this countries greatest artists. It should be restored to its former glory really
Can we have museums and galleries next week? I have some lovely pics of der Neue Pinakothek in Munich from yesterday which is an absolutely lovely building.. took more pictures of the building than the artwork (which was also ace btw).
Sir, we ARE entitled to it.. haha
Nimis is a huge wooden structure built by an artist on the coast near to Angelholm, in Skane, Southern Sweden. Pics dont do it justice.
Edit. Oops 
Try again!
The beach huts at Wells-next-the-Sea. One of the greatest games of adolescence was climbing onto the roof of a beach hut at one and then jumping roof to roof to the other end. Some jumps were too far so you had to jump down and climb up the other side.
This game was seldom played sober and most often in the dark. There were several minor injuries and I believe once there was a roof collapse. He was a big lad and had trouble climbing back out.
Alnwick tree house:
Similarly, Bewilderwood in Norfolk:
I really love the burnt finish on this one (it's charred cedar). There's loads about it here:

Iron Age house
Middlesex Guildhall Crown Court (now the Supreme Court). I prefer the grimy forboding crim court to the current spruced up state. They've kept the wood though.
Sticks
Patrick Doughery's things made from sticks. The sticks aren't woven or wired together and they're not growing, they are just sort of flexed against each other, all in tension.
And they remind me of this
St George's Cathedral - Guyana
The world's tallest wooden building, built by a mental Russian gangster
Holborn's The Lamb
Another shot of the Great Barn in Bradford-on-Avon. All these old tythe barns have fantastic timber roof structures. A bugger to photograph properly, tho'
Here's a sweet little timber church, St Mary & St Nicholas, Sandy Lane, Wiltshire:
Interior:
Sorry I am hopeless at putting up pictures, these are of the sports hall in Joensuu, enormous wooden thing. Breathtaking
