I went to see Ged,s exhibition too and had my photo taken to prove it.
Great Ged, great.
Oh I see they've placed the cordon around now - and Chippie is over the border !
Yes Lindy. You'll notice all the mo mo cars on your pic which had to be removed before Chippie got to see it, thanks for going folks, hope it didn't detract too much from it Chips.

Thanks Mandy. The reason that police car is on a wire is the blue light lights up. Probably doesn't anymore though
ok ok I,ll put the flippin, mo mos back when I go again. But I had to have something to play with while standing in the queue to see the big shippys.
Anyway.............
One of the good things about getting in there after hours was to see parts of the museum not usually accessable to the public. Entering from the rear there is a massive lift (for moving dinosaurs and the like about) and a loading bay. I got to take some pics out of the rear windows which i'd not seen since the 1970s as the now defunct staircase was there back then.
From the left, there is Adlington and Bispham House heights, built in 1966/67 - then panning to the right are the new apartments on Leeds Street.
The end of the old Byrom street technical college as we knew it back then, now part of the JMU.
I don't know but a couple of hundred low level bungalows and houses where the once vibrant tenements of Fontenoy and Gerard Gardens once stood, housing around 700 families seems to have rendered the area a bit souless
