Replete with columns and a pair of lions, this colonial-style residence is just what you'd expect to see in the nouveax-riche areas of LA. But no. This is down on the South Coast of the UK in Dorset. The blue roof tiles are supposedly a deterrent to gulls taking up residence.
Gulls, and anyone with taste. I have no idea why Sandbanks is so highly priced (ie. third in the world or something). It just feels like any other suburban area - most of the buildings are average at best, its miles to the shops and not that secluded. Now Branksome Park - that's a classy place to live.
Nice to someone else blogging from Poole/Bournemouth. Doesn't seem to many of us as far as I can see. Not very tech-savvy down here (unlike you, it seems :).
The ramblings of an IT Executive, Richard Atkinson, who is trying to work out who this "decision maker" fellow is that people keep asking for. If you find him, let me know would you?
