ABLE Crane coming down

[Norfolkred1]

Well its survived the explosions!

Went down to watch it, nearly 90 minutes late and she was still standing when I left. Now a H&S issue so would expect ABLES to get the hack saws out.

Love the Gazette live feed. "The demolition is believed to have failed" .......... well yes that's pretty self evident.

Maybe old news, but not to me:

Landmark crane near Riverside Stadium set to be brought down

The well-known Able UK structure will be demolished on Sunday, subject to weather conditions

No it’s not. Should have got Miller from “The Guns of Navarone” instead of a box of matches.

Its become a bit of a eyesore, on balance right for it go for me.

I not against preserving some of the past, but unless it was going to be seriously tarted up I would prefer a modern memorial to industries of the area to show visitors.

We were talki

Someone's probably trying to get it listed as we speak so it can be turned into a bungee jumping platform with cafe and visitors centre

Me and my mate did think it would make a great advertising structure.
