Very impressive but terrifying. It must be absolute hell to be jammed in there, far too many people.



Terrifying when you realise this is the low-res version they deemed fit for human consumption. 8-[

It's what happens if you brake just a bit too hard... :shock:
The sight of that improperly clad bollard must have done it.

I saw that as well. Looks like the camera system might have 'overlapped' somehow.

Two slightly time-separated digital images have become merged/superimposed. Everything stationary remains single, the moving cars appear twice.
The pedestrians and the scootists are a bit of a conundrum.

I had a George Washington day today. Very sad but necessary but at least we will have an improved supply of logs next winter.

Who knows? Not me but the cherry tree story appeared in the 5th edition of the above, but likely to be in the "Beam me up Scotty" or "Play it again Sam" category of well known sayings which were never said!
