I'm currently working on a construction project lasting 4 years in Central London (England) and are currenlty in demolition phase (started Oct 06).
These are some progress shots taken with my Sony Ericsson K800i mobile phone (3.2 mega pixels).

Most are taken in the direction of the BT Tower (East) or Heathrow Airport (West).
Some are more what I call 'photographic' shots and others are progress.

I'll update this post as time goes on.

Captions explain all....

Oh yes, I've heard of them. Grin

Maybe I'm getting old, but I don't want to go back to swinging a sledgehammer all day... even if it is fun.
And setting and wiring the charges would make me nervous. Grin

But if they need somebody to push the button, I'm available. Grin

Ah I see on the pics, sorry, I'll do that.

Root & Rotty, I've got CD coming down here to do some stuff, but classified I'm afraid.
After they're done, I'll post some pics.

Rotty, I've got tons of pics of the actual demo, I'll stick up another thread.
