Tch. I was never any good at spelling!

unfortunately I had to have both hands on the wheel or I would have taken a photo at this point

Oh well I shall have to ask you for a signed print in exchange for mine...

Good job you took the pic, They're not there now. They blew them up at 3am Sunday 24 Aug 08

I knew these towers were due for demolition at some point and I made a point of taking a photo. It was difficult to hold the wheel and the camera it the same time but it is sort of possible (if not recommended).

I had planned to go and see them being demolished (yes, at 3am) but, well, I forgot! Drat.

Anyway, if anyone wants me to email them my original digital photo, my email address is graham_wiggans@hotmail.com. I won't be able to sign it though Rohenria but I guess you'd rather have it in its pristine condition :-)
