It looks like Nottingham is better than London. You have TWO Nottingham Eyes as it actually supposed to be. lol

Lovely photos, each and every of them. :)

Thank you

Our main Nottingham Wheel went to London Last year for the Royal Wedding.

I know we don't have Big Ben but we have a clock with a bell thats the deepest in tone in the country and strikes the quarter hours called Little John.

We don't have St Pauls but we do have a council house built with a large dome of a similar style

We don't have the Tower of London but we do have a castle although the present building was built in 1600's but there are still foundations and walls built at the same time as the Tower.

We don't have the Thames but we do have the Trent and both are tidal rivers

But we do have a flotilla of boats every year when we have the Nottingham Festival
