Given the artist picture in that article. Looks like they are finally going to get round to putting new blue bulbs on the roof support poles.

Never thought I’d see the night.

Still not done? What the fuck are they playing at? I'm guessing it's the unions taking the piss, safe that Labour are back in Downing Street. Bring back Rishi, and the job will be done by Christmas.

Too busy gang-tagging the steelwork.

Apologies.

I've been trying to download the pictures from my Google pixel 8 mobile to my PC so I can photoshop them, but the USB-type C cable I've got isn't transferring the pictures to my PC. I'll post the pictures in a bit from my mobile. I'll definitely post the pictures tonight.

Whilst I'm posting.

I spoke to one of the lads erecting the mobile crane this afternoon. He told me the lift is scheduled to start at 6.30am on Monday morning. I'm assuming that's when everyone involved in the lift will be onsite. He said the lift and fix into place will take most of Monday. The mobile crane is now in situ, with the crane arm raised in the air, and 2 orange straps are around the steel frame that is being lifted into place.

I'm just guessing after looking at the pictures and doing a bit of searching on Google. The mobile crane could be the Liebherr LTM 1750-9.1 9 axle mobile hydraulic crane - Sarens. I'm not 100% sure. The crane looks very similar. So does the tyre configuration, 3,3,1,2. You'll see from the pictures in a bit.
