Jack Straw's Falmer Watch No 29A (10/7/09).

[Jack Straw]

It's really happening now.
The man on the gate said that the steel should be arriving on Monday for erection in a couple of weeks.
He said the "Gate House" which should have arrived two weeks ago is on its way.
I mentioned our man from Swansea on the inside - Natterjack, and he said that he was a really nice bloke.
I said that the banter on here confirmed that too.
I will try to meet him next week.
Stanmer Link Rroad widening confirmed to start 21st September.
Two lots of photos again this week.

Better pictures than that idiot Blobby managed last week )))))

Excellent set again! I am started to get all excited now!

 

[CHAPPERS]

So sweet

 

[Jack Straw]

Ah, but the man on the gate said that last week, a very smartly dressed bloke came and did the photos. Yes that would be you Mr.Blobby!
OK, I dress scruffily, but I do my best.

I wouldn't want to impose.

Great pics - thanks!

Probably could, but you wouldn't be able to see a lot other than the back of the massive West Stand!

I've just noticed an alien space craft in the field, top left of photo 4.

You can kind-of already tell: those concrete walls are - I guess, I may well be wrong - the sides of what posh stadium architects call vomitories, i.e. the staircases from where your and my children's children will emerge blinking into the flood- or sun-light in order to watch us parading the European Cup. Probably.

GREAT stuff JS, as always.

Hey nazi mods, whatever happened to NSC Knighthoods? Shirley JS has more than earned one by now.

forgive me for being dense... but what the f*** is the gate house?

 

[Simster]

Fan bloody tastic. We're inching towards our rightful status of PROPER football club once again.

I *heart* Tony Bloom.

Somewhere temporary for the guy at the gate to sit and read his paper. Not exactly a momentous mile-stone in the building process (unless your the guy on the gate!)

 

[Billy the Fish]

There's going to be more than one massive ERECTION when the steel turns up
