Tinsley cooling towers, the end of an era :(

Well, at 3am this morning a VERY large part of sheffield was to come crashing down, but not without a fight!!
there had been rumor on rumor on rumor for the last 12 months about WHEN the towers at tinsley were finally going to be dropped, and a few weeks back the date was made public!! myself and havoc, finding ourselves at a loose end decided to pay them one last visit, so we made our way with the masses to meadowhall in sheffield we found a spot to stand and waited for the BANG
5........4..............3..............2.................1......................BANG!! and boy what a bang!!! you can see the vid i made a vid of the drop viewable here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dAL5PYHp1ZM

anyhow, the drop done it was time to sit in the car for an hour to get out of the car parks at meadowhall!!!

once home it was decided to check the BBC news site for the full script, and it turns out about a third of the north tower was still standing!! woop woop, tinsley wasnt going to take it lying down afterall!! but i was sad to hear she finally gave in, and after 2 hours she fell of her own accord :(

RIP tinsley, you have been stood for 70 years, and been a proud icon of sheffield for millions.

you were in my eyes anyway the true angels of the north...............
