Cave house
This isn't far from where I live - maybe 10 miles or so.
I'm looking to move house, but I don't think a cave is really my thing.

That is such a cute house, so much character in it. I will keep it in mind for my next home...
In the outback Aust there a homes built underground because of the heat.
Very cool! Not to change the subject, but...how do you pronounce Worchestershire, anyway? I'm sure I am mispronouncing it...

Wusster-shire, or to be properly english, Wusstersher with short "e"s and short "u" in wuss, and the emphasis on the first syllable. Note that wuss is only a pronunciation guide and not a statement on the county 
It's also how you pronounce the name of the sauce, rather than wor-cest-er-shire.

Yep Merianday that's how I say it as well...(wusster-shire)
Most men I know like it on eggs at brekky time...
My brother- in- law puts it on everything in every meal, apparently it must be sign of manhood or something LOL
I can't be a sign of the country (wuss) because the sauce is so strong in flavour that you couldn't be a wuss and like it!
Grandma's neighbours build their retirement home into a hill, but theirs had the normal furnace and stove such. And Bob The Builder's latest series hides homes that way as well. Makes a lot of sense to me, if you've got the space for it.

Why does that look like the perfect location for a Galactor base?

.... well a hamster wheel would solve the first, and it rains a lot in England.
Oh, and it has even a fireplace Ego likes fireplaces. Yup, Jun, it's worth for a base.

Yup, I'm sure Katze had a lot of caves bases in Himalaya, but all the Swan needs is a yo-yo to blow it up.

It's been sold - to someone who has no itention of living in it. Which may be a good thing.

My parents live in a house that is built into a hillside. The nice thing about it is the rooms bellow ground/main floor never get too warm. In other words they stay at the temp. of 10 - 12 ft. underground. The frount of the house and upper floors facing south are all glass windows, to allow for solar heating of the rest of the house.
Wish I had some pictures of their place.
Speaking of interesting houses what do you think of these?
And for those of you who have always dreamed of living in a tree house.
And the last one makes me think of the James Bond Movie: I can't remember the name of it right now.
Did I do this one right???
Cool..cool.. houses.. are they real? I mean... do somebody really live in those, or are they just designer's inspirations?

Hmmm, I can picture the cottage between the rocks with the car in front being real, and the treehouse, but I think there's been a bit of photoshopping with the others....
Doesn't that cottage in the first pic look as if it's on an island, and so the car wouldn't have anywhere to go to?

No tree could support the weigth of a house. You can see the shade difference between the hose and the three. As for the ice building, it's more than clear.

I have read far to may fantasy books....I get confused about which world I live in...
It would be different thats for sure to live in a house like those ones that CD has posted...My fear of heights may stop me though...

SoldMy dad told mt that the neighbour who bought the Galactor secret base....I mean house cave bought it because her father used to live in one nearby and she wanted the cave houses and land to be left as it is. Also he said that the last cave house like that one was last lived in the 50s

I mean a real tree house, or a real iceberg house. I could actually see some of these as being good secret/hidden bases for Zoltar. Not as obvious as using shielding to hide the base. Well ...... maybe not.

I knew I'd seen the one of the house between the rocks before - it's in France. Must be well know as it's the first thing that came up when I googled "house between rocks". Not on an island though, so I suppose the car has a practical use.
Originally posted by clouddancerEr, did you know that Icebergs can melt and doing the laundry would be fun AND yor funiture, carpets, etc would either get wet or just melt.Originally posted by meridianday Hmmm, I can picture the cottage between the rocks with the car in front being real, and the treehouse, but I think there's been a bit of photoshopping with the others....

Only if the iceberg somehow ends up on land.
Oh, I was thinkin' of an ice mecha. That would keep Katze cool for a while.
Except in Summer or if the Firery Phonenix goes through it. Mind thoough, at least Spectre/Galactor uniforms can get washed at the same time.
Come to think, 
such a mecha would be really destructive. It would cause such a flood when melted...

In that case don't send the mech to Hull or Herefordshire or even the M1 motorway as ithose place will get floaded again. Mind you it now been raining and sunny several times today. Just wish it makes it mind up. Stupid weather.

Why do I suspect it was the 5 acres of land that was the main attraction, with the cave serving as a way to attract attention?
