Part of the Cellular Operations Building, West Swindon
The building, empty until recently, has been refurbished and awaits new occupiers. At present it looks a little forlorn, like a pretty girl who's been stood up.
Update 05 July 2009: the building is now called 'Arclite House' and presently has two occupiers, HSM Ltd and Renaissance Easy Claim.

Peatmoor Lagoon
Seen from the car park of Hongxin Oriental Buffet. There was a poster advertising dragon races on the lake one day quite soon - sounds fun.
