Gee but it's good to be back home - Yes I've had a lovely time, thanks for asking!! ;)


Anyway - what's going on with this crane? when is it gonna be fully constructed and functioning? what about the smaller crane on site - has that been constructed? I look forward to having a walkabout tomorrow to get back up to speed on all these 'big issues!!' :)

I was told they were hoping to get back on with it yesterday but I haven't seen any sign of lifting equipment on site.

In other nearby news Number 3 Capital Quarter cladding has started and Number 4 is at 2nd floor.

There are only so many cranes in the UK you know!
They had to wait until the one at Central Square was taken down, given a good clean and now it ready to be put up again. :D
