30th April 2010 - INSIDE sepecial!

Very many thanks to Martin Perry for making this possible, and to Richard Hebbard for the information packed guided tour.
It was nice to leave the ladder at home this week.
The scale of this place is immense.
The specification for all related work is as high as it could be.
Believe it or not, I'm told that when Arsenal upgrade the Emirates, they will be copying us!
Enjoy this lot.

23rd April 2010 (Happy St Georges Day!!)

On this glorious St.George's Day, I parked my car by Falmer village pond.
I noticed the "Vote Baker" posters in the villagers' windows.
How appropriate I thought, that this particular dragon was slayed, and the land was ours to build our cathedral of football.
The angles available to take meaningful photos are diminishing each week.
It would be criminal to have to stop this project 6 months before completion.
Anyway, still managing something at the moment.
Windows on the inside face of the east stand all in place.
Middle section of west arch sitting in the middle of the pitch area looks completed.
North stand terracing slowly taking shape.
West stand footprint virtually finished.

16th April 2010

I've tried to rise to the challenge to the requests from yesterday.
Please see "The Blue & White Road to Falmer", views from Woodingdean and Stanmer Park, the f***** road works, lots of the west, north and south stands, and the sign, but unfortunately, I didn't spot "Noo-Noo". Apologies to Clipped Gull.
I got honked by "The Henfield One" as I was finishing my work this morning.
It was his first day driving since his hospitalisation, and will be making an appearance at Southend tomorrow which is terrific news.
The cloud of volcanic dust from Iceland hasn't seemed to have interfered with the photos.
