The planners wanted a definite visual break between Terminal 2 and the tower so that stupid future historians were not confused into thinking the Midland Railway had built both in 1876 so there is a vertical 10" wide recess between the two.
We could not make good the air-gap at the edge of the Tyvek building-wrap and last summer a wasps' nest did big business in the gap. Winter saw off the wasps and this weekend I have made good the seal. Rather proud of my efforts which involved tucking in the Tyvek, hammering in foam gap-filling backer-rod then sealing with EverBuild roofing sealant.
Any ideas on colour or material for the infill? Considering European flag blue with yellow stars, bright pink or Network Rail Orange Army orange.
Now, any new pretty pictures? No, but these of the Garsdale water tower. identical to ours in size are new to me. Demolished in another age - 1971.
Oh yes, there is a pretty Yorkshire Dales picture for you - Grassington actually.
