Wobbly

A fairly wobbly restart to entries as I find my feet with work. On my recent visit to the UK I spent a couple of days in London and walked just about everywhere. This is the famous wobbly bridge that has stopped wobbling. It takes you right to the door of the Tate modern gallery just behind us here. Ahead is St Pauls, which I also visited for a short while to escape the drizzle. The bridge is an interesting structure, the two points that struck me most were these strangely truncated ends to the graceful cable arcs and the fine ridged steel walkway surface, which makes some fairly whacky stridulatory noises as you scuff across it.
