We may well have been swimming at the Hoe on the same day Sise. We lived in Plymouth from 1958 to 1962. We sometimes caught the foot ferries round to Bovisand or Cawsand beaches for the day. No ‘facilities’ there, just sea and sand.

Thanks Smeagol, you are correct. I would have expected Plaça Espanya as the answer but yours is correct.

The Spanish procession of computer controlled racing cars took place in BCN today, which is what made me think to post this photo.

OH then.

It looks like a building I took a photo of in Funchal last year but I don't have time now to look for the picture. I suspect it has a judicial or police function.

Another clue: Cape, right about the sort of building function and builders, but very wrong with the location.
