Not a great pic, taken with my P&S as I didnt want to cart my DSLR around all day.

Not been here before, and always wanted to. Found it absolutely fascinating, with some top Victorian engineering on show.

Anyone able to name the venue ?

Right end of the country, but to far West.

Also, this is a genuine piece of Victorian engineering at its very best.

Tower Bridge
Congrats !!! beer

These two are in the top rafters of the West tower. There is also another guy having a cup of tea further up, but my P&S couldnt focus on him.

The engineering skills involved in lifting the bridge are superb and of their time.I really enjoyed looking around both the towers and aslo the engine room which is a on the side of the river.

We took the tube into town early this morning, did the London Aquarium and then had a very enjoyable walk down the south bank to Tower Bridge.

A very nice way to spend what I thought was going to be a washout Sunday.
