Football Stadia Panoramas

I seem to be gathering a collection of football stadia panoramas. First, last year there was The City of Manchester Stadium, then a few weeks ago, Old Trafford – now I can add the (rather tiny in comparison) JJB Stadium, home of Wigan Athletic. Click thumbnails for larger images.

Pleasant Commuter route

I’ve decided – my next job will be based in Wigan. Today I had the dream commute for my course up there – just 25 minutes in total.

I didn’t leave the house this morning until just after 8am (in contrast to my usual 6:50am departure to get into Stockport)…

It has been a good day.

Town Hall Spire

The Manchester Town Hall spire at dusk. I think it is the crop of the photograph that does it… I can’t stop thinking of the Crocodile from the title sequence of the now defunct BBC1 programme “On the Record” when I look at it.

Big Crane!

The “Public Realm Renewal” going on in Exchange Square, Manchester, seemingly requires a huge crane… Is the Big Wheel due back very soon? – I can’t think of anything else that would require such a crane.
