Tinsley Towers Demolition - View from the North

[catsbunnytails]

The hole left on the Sheffield skyline by the loss of these two old friends is heartbreaking.

Thanx for giving a different angle than most ,must admit it'll be strange not seeing them on our travels up North.

Hmmm. A shame, and despie the new baby and the fact I live 50 miles away, I'm sort of hating myself for not having made it down to watch.

I hope someone collected all the rubble so we can sneakily start re-building them?

I'm not so sure about the 'fun' aspect. It was certainly something unique and exciting, but not exactly 'fun' in the traditional sense.

Great video, but why do people whoop and cheer and demolitions?

[deejayone1]

I guess it's the excitement of it - many people had been waiting to watch it for several hours!

I loved the cheering roar coming from all around when they' come down, particularly from the direction of Meadowhall car-park, it was like listening to a goal being scored in a giant open-air football match!
