Thanks to Steven for being there as I wasn't sure if the weather would allow me and w/chair to make it, especially in the dark at 8am!! My brain is not really awake then and my body certainly isn't! As it turned out I did make it although the constant and heavy drizzle meant camera lens getting rather dampish [hence the blur on some photos] and me and chair being thoroughly soaked. How many pints of water does a w/chair hold after being in the rain for an hour? Answers on a postcard please. I wouldn't have missed the event for anything though. The entire demolition, including the final morning, was very impressive and done with no mess left around the area [thanks to the contractors]. The skyline is so different today and I will miss that old building - can remember them digging out the founds for it many, many years ago!!! What it is to be so old that you can remember history.
