My house is just out of shot, a few hundred yards to the south.
I don't know if apparent in the picture, but the long stay car park was designed to be the shape of Concorde.
If your ever in the vicinity of Prestwick on a weekend, check out a pub called "Elliotts"

Bugger! Thought it might have been the Imperial Palace when you put it up, but never checked 'cos the Islamic style blue design on the tall building had me thinking it was the capital of one of the "'stans" or maybe Malaysia. Spent about half an hour checking every city from Baku to KL!
