yen_powell Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 I reckon this building has 8 floors including the basement and the roof garden, admittedly 2 of them are additions. This a Georgian skyscraper! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's in front of smokoloko in London, which serves all sorts of food stuff including smoked bbq. That's a pretend locomotive called smokey, their mascot. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Makes excellent food with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yen_powell Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 Today I got to site an hour before the crack of dawn. I walked through an empty Spitalfields to my London flat (hut). Remember the underground Edwardian toilet I took photos of inside? Well it's supposed to be turned into a bar and one of my mob is supposed to do the landscaping on top. A slight snag, the contractor doing the inside work has fucked off claiming it's too difficult after starting. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yen_powell Posted June 27, 2023 Share Posted June 27, 2023 And then whilst walking through Spitalfields Market to my exclusive London flat (hut!) I took some pictures of the Charnel House they discovered whilst rebuilding the area in the late 1990s. They boxed it in and put in a flight of stairs and lift for wheelchair users. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the woman in charge of the highway works at this place is leaving I have a 50/50 chance of inheriting the job so I will probably have to. The pipe trailing over the ground was going into a tanker, there is shite leaking into the place and it is being pumped out, so I'm not too keen to venture down there. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Puppy is feeling much better, he's bouncing back better than anyone thought and being a real trooper with having a daily visit to the vet for two shots for 9 days now. His catheter came off today, tomorrow first few stitches also come off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yen_powell Posted July 5, 2023 Share Posted July 5, 2023 Today I was at one site in Spitalfields first thing, the site with zilllions of yellow vested men wandering about all over the place whilst we try and do our work in the middle of them. I'm sure they're over manned. Saw an old hoist inside one of the buildings and took a picture of that. Apparently there is a better thing to photograph up on the 4th floor so I will try and get up there at some point. The developer mocks us using string and spirit levels when we set out our cross and longitudinal falls for future footway and carriageway as they have people who do nothing else but mark out spot levels to ensure everything is accurate. Architects have worked out everything and their levels must be followed. So far we have made them dig out a few tons of concrete that was left too high. Today I showed them 3 doorways that are either a foot too high or too low. They are now frantically working out how to fix this before we slap our pavement in. Later I went to the toilets in Petticoat Lane I photographed years ago and got the men carrying out waterproofing works to open up the gates so I could see how they look now. These are being turned into a trendy bar apparently! Finally I took a photograph into a building site on the Isle of Dogs and the traffic marshal (or Tellytubby as they are known) started shouting at me and putting his hand in front of my phone. What a knob. I told him to stop pissing about, I was standing outside on the road looking in and their site is on top of our road which we have to put back later this year. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
