Re: Winston Churchill Avenue bridge construction

It must be around 15 years since the old bridge was knocked down so it will be a handy link for people like my wife who has family in the block opposite us on the other side of WCA.

Perhaps Storrie has turned over a new leaf, I saw him on a train last week in standard class despite having a first class ticket. :|

Re: Olympic Torch in town today

I was in two minds about seeing the relay last night but I'm so glad I did, we found a prime spot on Edinburgh Road and got shots of the handover, also got a unique shot of our nephew with the torch (unlit at the time). I don't know the physics of how it all works but the in following shot you can m...

Re: Britains Got Talent - A Plea!

My wife has tickets for the London auditions on Feb 7th, but it turns out that despite having a ticket she still has queue from as early as possible (minimum 2 hours) in the freezing cold and even then she is not guaranteed entry. Auditions start at 1pm and the finish time is 'approx' 6pm. I was ini...
