I've spent some time working there too, and indeed, the views were fantastic. The call center room had a huge window looking on to the mountains.Originally posted by expatIn one contract in Switzerland I could see across Lake Geneva to the French side, with Mt Blanc in the distance (One side in Italy, so 3 countries from the desk).
Unfortunately I spent most of my time there in either the server rooms (2 levels below ground) or the meeting/conference rooms.
Still, I'd love to go and work there again.

No - Its not floodlit, no need for it during the day.Originally posted by stackpoleFloodlit is it?
I can see streetlights if I lean over by the window, but mainly I can see my reflection.
Which is nice.

Are you going to break into a verse of "How green is my valley"?Originally posted by zeitghostCan't see anything out of my home office window coz of the blinds, but out of my back bedroom window I can see 80 yards of my back garden, a canal, a river, a marsh and the hills the other side of the valley... it's all very green.

Nothing
They don't let us in IT have windows too dangerous!
At home I can see the top of the ash tree and the firs in the distance, at the far distance (on the other side of the park) we have a row of 1960's semis.
I like this
Only seven months out of the last twenty-six have seen above average rainfall (these were October 2005 108%, May 2006 176%, September 2006 133%, October 2006 127%, November 2006 126% and December 113%)
so, we need consistent above average rainfall to supply enough water then?

That sounds like Threaded speak. Rough translation:Originally posted by bogeymanI can see nothing now as it's dark.
In daylight however, I can see my garden, stretching away towards the 'folly' (a semi-walled courtyard area with a grape vine).
To the right is the orchard, and ahead and beyond, the mature woodland of my neighbour's property.
I can't see another house or another person - which is fine by me.
In daylight however, I can see my garden, stretching away towards the 'folly' (a semi-walled courtyard area with a grape vine).
Means I can see the bird bath in my tiny back yard.
To the right is the orchard, and ahead and beyond, the mature woodland of my neighbour's property.
There is manky apple tree sapling in the backyard and my neighbour has two trees in their garden
I can't see another house or another person - which is fine by me
I can however see the other council tower blocks, but no people as it is too dangerous to venture outside.

If I did that, I'd turn myself to stone.Originally posted by _V_I have an absoluting stunning view from my desk. It really is incredible. I go all weak at the knees everytime I catch glimpse of it.
Yes, I sit opposite a mirror.
