M&S Surging On




This is my most recent picture. M&S is really surging on and is much bigger than we expected. Got to admire the crane operator and the cherry picker steel workers building this. Amazing!!!!

M&S Steelwork Starts

Well, this is my first up-to-date post. Here comes the steelwork for M&S. Notice the rebar in the foreground - a nice bit of concrete pour too. Amazing how quickly this is going up!

Sports Direct (Lillywhites) Demolition


Here is a picture from Autumn 2011 of Lillywhites and Clintons etc being demolished. Such a shame since they sold some real cheap gear in Lillywhites and Clinton's was very useful for cards.
