Is that part of the shape? It looks like it might be just painted like that.

Nice idea, but they need to work on PS Skills.

Really hope this works but can't say I'm confident:

If nothing else, the flats are already starting to look a lot nicer.

It'll remain the white elephant its already been for years, just more lurid.
Only about 1/8 of the place has actually had anything done to it so far and they're really fucking up the path/cycle-way on the town side as they're laying new kerbs and tarmac (regular route home).
I thought they'd tried to sell flats in advance before work had started, that either didn't work or I was misinformed (there was a program on the BBC a year or so ago about it and some guy from National Trust or whoever looks after its interest/status as a listed building was enthusing about its lovely lines and concrete, but I bet he hadn't signed up to buy and live in one of them, think it was in that that I recall them saying they were selling them prospectively).

Cool, it's even got intersections.
How long before that appears in a movie. Next Bond?

Cool. there was a great program on BBC4 last night about 'Brutalism'.
The presenter (probably famous) reminded me of how some of my social science colleagues hold court
spout shit
and whilst there was a fair bit of rubbing chin on my side, it was interesting and engaging.. Probably on the iPlayer still...

Very good, enjoyed it last night and looking forward to part 2. So little on tv that ever challenges you intellectually nowadays, but Meade never disappoints. Always a few moments of extreme dry humour too (if it isn't all).

I thoroughly enjoyed it. Meades style takes a bit of getting used to. You have to be in the right headspace to not get a bit overwhelmed.
Found it quite hard to keep the timeline working in my head as he jumped back and forth quite a bit.
Looking forward to the next one.
