Strasbourg

	Here's the PC I wrote this code with using Netscape Composer 4.76. I got it second-hand in 2001 as the first computer I ever had. I chose a desktop Mac, a Performa 5400/160MHz as I wasn't sure if I could understand how to make it work. In fact, I had to re-install the system eight times in the first six months, but now things are better! I popped in a level 2 cache which sped it up considerably, especially when I read several audio tracks at the same time.
	This is a little map of Europe in case you don't know where Strasbourg is. It's situated in the north-east corner of France, right on the border with Germany. I've put a red dot above the 'g' of Strasbourg to help you see where it is. This is where the european parlement is.
	On the home page you can see the front-side of the house where my ground-floor flat is. This is the little garden common to everyone in the house. I sometimes go and lie there in summer to read. It's nice and quiet except for jets flying directly overhead to land at the city airport 8 miles away. Luckily that only happens once every half-hour!
	Here is the part of the city centre called "La Petite France" where there are lots of canals, locks, and houses dating from the Middle Ages. You can see the 144m tall cathedral spire on the right in the background. Click on the photo to see another bigger (19kB) photo showing the waterways around the city centre
	I took my camera along one day to a park on the northern fringe of Strasbourg. So this is the Chateau de Pourtales. A lot of Strasbourg people come here for a walk week-ends. Sadly, a lot of trees were blown down during the great tempest at the end of 1999. Click on the photo to see another bigger (18kB) photo of some lovely trees in their autumn splendour
