Brilliant that

 

[Butcher's Coat]

Excellent, will be better than the view down the Champs Elysees and p1ss all ower Olympic Way.

Would be even better if they find a way to light it all up at night from one end to the other.

Tidied for accuracy

its been designed as a cutting edge smart bridge so Im expecting summet like wembly way...

'Featuring a creative lighting and augmented reality, the crossing will allow people to use their smartphone to see virtual displays that council bosses say will create ‘an experiential bridge that will really bring to life the city’s digital ambitions’, the bridge will connect the transforming former Vaux Brewery site to Sheepfolds.'

He is. I follow him on Instagram and LinkedIn. He certainly puts the hours and mileage in.

I'm really looking forward to walking to the ground on matchdays, for concerts or just popping over to Sheepfolds for a few beers

Well done the council

Yes. I wish they would hurry and finish it. Was a right chore walking the long way round.

What are they going to do to stop the little tosspots on motorbikes flying across it all the time?

Snipers

Loving your footage, genuinely interested is the area not a no fly zone with it being a construction site or are you a certain distance away?

I tend to go early morning when nobody is working. Legally I could still fly even if they were but I choose not to. No fly zones tend to be for airports etc. Used to be a lot stricter and had to get permission to fly near the Stadium even when there wasn't a match but that's been relaxed now.

Aye. Although if someone asked me not to fly somewhere, I would stop. No point being a dick about it.
