Sweet. Going up there in Feb. (In a lift, not a crane)

Here's a challenge - see which stadiums you can find in that picture.

I can see The Den, The Valley, The Olympic, The Emirates and Wembley. Think it's too misty for stamford bridge, not sure if WHL is too far away. Seen a possibility for UP but not sure

I remember when the Post Office Tower and the Hilton on Park Lane were causes celebres, because of their height.

That London is as dead as Kelsey's nuts.

I can see it from my flat, just right of St Pauls on my skyline, watched it being built from here once it's nose was high enough to see.

Magnificent building, I have watched it grow daily as travel through London Bridge.

I was at London Bridge on Monday, and looked up at The Shard to see these abseilers. :eek:

The Shard does look superb, but the top looks strangely unfinished IMHO. Could do with a giant luminous seagull or something to top it off.

It wouldn't be much of a shard if it looked finished, would it? :lolol:

Anyway, I love it and like a lot of commuters have seen it go up over the past few years and it has transformed LB station.
