What did you see out your works window?

Some people are aware that I work in secure psychiatric hospital set amidst 200 acres of beautiful countryside. For the last 2 days as I gaze out of my office window I have witnessed 3 lambs being born from the flock of Jacob sheep that graze in the field opposite. Only another 5 sheep on that field to birth left now.
I sometimes think its these experiences and the great drive to work that keeps me turning up for work there.

What did you see?

Cr*p views help me concentrate on my work, or so they tell me...

Today I saw the red arrows fly over Parliament.

In the past I've seen Mendela unveil his statue with Bonny Prince Charlie in attendence. The funniest thing that I've seen (although not for everyone) was some poor bloke break down on Parliament Square. By the time he opened the bonnet and the boot of the car he was spread eagled on the floor trying desperately to explain things to the numerous armed police standing above him.

I saw Chris Eubank in his truck driving round Parliament Square, loudhailer and all.

But above all, what I tend to see is millions of bl$%ming tourists!

Weeellll, when I first started working where I do now I had a front office with just me and my boss in the prestigious 'old' part of the Town Hall, a fine Edwardian building. My view was of a busy street watching the world go by and with a nice sunny westerly aspect.



After a while we got moved to the 'new' part, a 1980s extension, but I was on the fourth floor with panoramic views of the sea, watching the ships pass between the piers of the Tyne.

I got promoted ...


...so now I share a small pokey, paper stuffed office with three others in the basement of the new bit, with a sunless northerly aspect and in a corridoor next to the smelliest gents toliet in the world Did I say promotion?

I work in a basement - the windows are up high and all you can see is feet walking along the pavement.

I was in Victoria Street when the Red Arrows went over - couldn't see them though

The beautiful Yorkshire countryside, all the towns and cities as my works window is a car window and I work all over Yorkshire.

In fine weather there isn't anywhere better.

I'm incredibly lucky and have two floor to ceiling glass walls in my office. If I turn round to look out I see the Slough power station, the Mars factory, the 02 building and in the distance I can see "The Office" of David Brent fame. I don't turn round often.
