andybarton Posted February 2, 2007 Share #7 Posted February 2, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I used to work with the architect's practice. I know what this is for, of course. Just wait until they bring the canal through. This place is going to be transformed by 2008. It's a very exciting place to be.

stuny Posted February 3, 2007 Share #8 Posted February 3, 2007 You're all wrong. It's an early flash drive before they got the miniaturization thing perfected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

biglouis Posted February 3, 2007 Share #11 Posted February 3, 2007 "(BTW, this colour one is what I consider to be one of the best photographs I have ever taken)" Andy, I was looking at this shot and thinking about the same thing before I saw your hidden comment. That is one fantastic exposure. Equipment? Lens? Blows me away, really. LouisB Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elansprint72 Posted February 3, 2007 Author Share #13 Posted February 3, 2007 No more takers? It is one of the vents for the Mersey Tunnel, there is a matching one on the Birkenhead side. Rather elegant it is too. Cheers, Pete. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah! Scally land! - It has to be a vent for one of the Mersey tunnels then. Mentioning the A55 reminds me that, soon after it opened, there was the first ram-raid ever on a warehouse in Gwynedd (the Warws mountain equipment centre in Beddgelert) - and guess where the Police found the culprits! It seems that the A55 brings Snowdonia within easy range for an evening's light breaking and entering... I forgot to say that I was born in Manchester, didn't I...!
