Name the city and the mountain range in the background.

I guess it's the Enginneering project site offices, but no idea why the tube carriages are up there.

EDIT <Reply to Martin's picture that was above but then removed>
 

It's the fake houses hiding the Circle Line near Paddington.

Lenster Place or something like that.

(Unless a post has been lost...)

Naggers is on Great Eastern St in Londinium. I always see those two tubes on my ride up to Cambridge (which goes up Shoreditch High St, a.k.a. the A10).

it has; I linked to a photo of the Leinster Terrace (non) house and took it down quick before it got replaced by one of two old boys enjoying a bit of how's your father which seems to happen at work

Is right (as was Martin before taking his post down)

Just West of the old Bishopsgate Goods Yard where all the work for the East London Line extention is happening.
A new bridge was put across Shoreditch High St (A10) a few weeks ago.

Guess the portacabins are part of the site offices but no idea why there needs to be a couple of old Jubilee Line cars on top.

Ok Andy...

Tell me where this is first...




I'm going to take a wild stab and guess that it is the Tesco store in Cirencester.

Is that city picture of Calgary, with the Rocky Mountains in the background?

Hmmm. Thought not.

Judging by the amount of graffiti I'd say it's some celebrity's house.

Graceland?
It didn't look at all like that in the photographs

Tesco, Blandford Forum.  That took a little while to work out...
