HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!!!

was up at sighthill today and can shed some light on demolition timescales... ... compass is having trouble with clearing the remianing tower(the one at the shops, the one in front of the stripped tower is empty and due to be handed over immenetly) so from what i could gleen today the feb/march blowdown is off, we are most likely looking at a late 2009 blowdown for the three remaining fountinwell towers(the contractor,tds is in talks with network rail so there could be a midnight blowdown for the fountainwell three will keep you guy's and gal's posted, also got a cool photo that i will post when i was on site!
