I see they have announced the prices to go up to the viewing gallery, £25 for an edult and £19 for a child.

The Empire State is $25 so I don't know why there is "anger" over the prices.
Its their building they can charge what they like if folks dont like it dont go up smile

That attitude is typical of what we see everywhere now smile

Yeah, lovely bit of music but not sure it's appropriate.

You missed the most crap boring vid of all time, nothing like what was advertised, just a stationary pic of the shard and some crap lasers radiating from it, that was it, and some really crap music, magic roundabout by comparrison is much more interesting.

Meh, although it looks a bit better as they've just lit the top up. Still, not enough for me to get off the sofa and take another pic.
