Tall Buildings

As the tall buildings go up east and west
Everyone touts theirs is taller and best
Though tall they may be
It's not hard to see
A library has more stories than the rest!

G'day Pat … a nice play on words PAT. In Melbourne between the tall buildings, peregrine falcons numbers have increased because of nesting sites and a plentiful supply of pigeons. I guess these falcons are enjoying city life - thanks PAT - Lindsay

Wow! Very interesting and an upbeat slant to the situation. (Unless of course, you are a pigeon fan).....80)

But imagine how easy it would be for Brits to get a sun tan if they could rise above the clouds! Aloha! Rico
