The 2nd one looks like it was taken in the Turbine Hall at Tate Modern.
You in London again?

I am, however, hoping to make, at least, one more trip across the pond and, hopefully, meeting up with a bunch of folks  . Cheers, Jack |

I think you're wrong. 2003 was only last week, no?

Given all the concern about keeping the lights on in London I would suggest getting all that 'arty farty' junk out of Tate Modern and replacing it with one of those RR small nuclear power stations. The location is perfect which is why the building was built as a power station in the first place.
Battersea would also be a good location.

Ferrybridge...oh no that's a woodburner... |

Ferrybridge...oh no that's a woodburner... Ferrybridge is not in the Trent valley; it's in Yorkshire on the River Aire. The big existing Trent valley power station near me is Ratcliffe-on-Soar. That would be pretty good for supporting South Notts with Nuclear power. It's a big site and could house maybe 4 mini-nukes. There are already enough pylons and wires in place. I would not oppose 4 mini-nukes on the doorstep provided I was bribed with huge discounts for my power.

I know where Ferrybridge is and it's multi fuel..Drax is the woodburner (mainly) |

I think you're wrong. 2003 was only last week, no?  ...... It, probably, would seem as such, Kath, if only I were reminded by the almighty arithmetic gods that I was still in my 40's .......... Cheers, Jack |

I'm hoping, willien, to be in my urn much before that In fact, I'm well past what I expected / hope my expiry date would be  ....although, I suspect that Keith (not Hudson) Richard and Willie (not n) Nelson will be battling it out for the Guinness Record for oldest gits Cheers, Jack |

Cheers, Jack Yes, I know the feeling. My youngest was born in 2003. The fact that she will be 21 in a couple of months is hard to get my head round. I was very definitely a 'geriatric mother' when I had her too which means I am now totally past it! |
