Trip to the Paralympics

09/07/2012 1:20 PM

We went to watch the men's semi final Wheelchair Basketball at the North Greenwigh Arena (aka O2 Arena, Millenium Dome).
Canada beat GB, but the atmospher was great and I took some pics which have some engineering interest. First is the UK's latest warship (those defence cuts are starting to bite).

Yes it's London not Barcelona! We've got a cable car now.

You can walk over the top of the Millenium dome... if yo' not a scaredy cat.

And finally some basketball.

Some pretty good engineering in those chairs.

"You can walk over the top of the Millenium dome..." - what, 'n' risk that twat Brosnan falling on yer head? There's a difference between 'scaredy cat' and 'suicidal feckin eejit' .
