Sail Away With Me (PiP)

Early 19th Century warehouse building. largely unaltered, that is now home to the Wigtown Bay Sailing Club based at the Isle of Whithorn, or simply 'The Isle' as it is referred to by locals. The Pip shows the facade with beautiful floral displays and an old rusty anchor on the wall to the left.

I have added David Gray's 'Sail Away'

I love this beautiful floral display, Carol. I love too the style of architecture of this old building. All the best, Joe

Ecobird ^club has replied to Joe, Son of the Rock ^club

Thank you very much Joe. I liked the way the floral display echoed the building's use as a sailing club. I think the balcony was a later addition but aside from that it is pretty much as it was when it was a warehouse

Best wishes Carol

Excellent flowers and superb images, I assume the sailing ship on the wall was a weather Vane, another wonderful place to visit!

A beautifully designed and decorated home.
Very nicely taken.
Thanks for showing, Carol

Ecobird ^club has replied to Heide ^club

Thank you very much Heide. Only a home inasmuch as it it the HQ of the Wigtown Bay Sailing Club which was established in 1955. The old warehouse building is a listed building. The floral displays certainly add charm to the building

Ecobird ^club has replied to Armando Taborda ^club

Thank you very much Armando. It is charming. The old building looks as if it has had a coat of paint since our last visit and the floral displays are new. but esssentially the building has changed little since it was a warehouse when it was built

Not a banana boat but a flower boat. I don't know which one would be better, but I do like this flower boat, it looks really pretty.

Have a lovely Wednesday, Carol!

2 years ago.

Ecobird ^club has replied to Edna Edenkoben ^club

;-))) Thank you Edna. I think the flower boat will survive longer, - banana boats are colourful but inflatable aren't they?!!! Can you imagine trying to plant roses in them ;-)) Could be fun though.

Happy Wednesday

Beautifully composed shots, Carol!
This warehouse building looks well-preserved and has a pleasant ambience.

2 years ago.

Ecobird ^club has replied to * ઇଓ * ^club

Many thanks * ઇઉ * . It is a listed building and has had little done to it but the floral display adds a nice touch of colour and makes it look welcoming. For me the fact that it retains it's origin features is quite appealing.

Have a lovely week ahead

A very nice floral arrangement displayed in an original and pleasing way. I like the textures of the stone wall and the reflections in the windows. The PiP shows very nicely the size of the structure.

Enjoy your evening Carol.
