:( link didnt work

Oh, it did when I looked (at the same time as you, Litha) it was slow to load though

its sooo not fair its tellin me im forbidden grrr why??????

you'll have to tell me about it then Strix :D

The best bit says:

Situated in beautiful coniferous woodland near Sheffield, this compact and bijou property would suit a small family or retired couple.
With good road links to Sheffield and the suffounding countryside, this igloo would be perfect for andyone owning a car.
The residence consists of a large living space approx 8ft in diameter and 6ft in height, with enough seating around the perimiter for several people.
Anyone wanting to part with their cash for the snow house is assured of all mod cons.
An air vent in the roof provides a vital air flow through the igloo
An entrance tunnel of 3ft ads to the beauty of this stunning building.
While most of us are cranking up the central heating, residents in the igloo will have to find other ways of keeping out the cold.
Once several people are inside it becomes suprisingly warm. A few lit candles help provide a nice atmosphere.

There is a photo of a very convincing igloo.


It's to raise money for a wildlife charity

thankyou Strix :D
well if ide not just moved i could have been very tempted, im havin bother with my heating at the mo so the cold wouldnt bother me ;)

has anyone bidded yet? its nice that its for charity

well at least i was not *forbidded* to look at that sight .. but all i got was an error telling me i do not appear to be the owner of the album :confused:

just what is it that im not supposed to be seeing:suspect: this is like having an itch under ya pot :huh:

I'm getting the same error there. Looks like it needs shifting into a 'public' album :huh:

Dam! it is in the public album lol

Does anyone want me to send it to them, so they can try posting it on here?!

I tried saving it and putting it in photobucket but the image was too small to read afterwards. I could get into the original one ok though.

Tell us what you called it and we may be able to 'search' for it from the homepage.

its a good post this.

i love the detailed photograpy, although I am curious as to why all i see is text.

hope you get it sorted.
