Always a pleasure to add some bridge spotting to a lovely walk.

Snuck a few bridges in on my trip to Edinburgh last week 👍

When you’re looking at a photo of a cabin on the new vessel for the Isle of Man ferry and get distracted trying to work out what bridge that is….🙄🤣 …anyone? Built in Korea I believe, if that helps 🧐

Travel to the Isle of Man by easyJet is a total washout atm. If your flight isn’t cancelled and you’re forced to travel on a different day, evening flights almost always delayed too late for onward travel by public transport. Makes necessary visits to family very stressful.

Took a look at Bath Quays footbridge at the weekend. Not quite the result I anticipated from the renders and pretty disappointing; the handrail lacked elegance and I found the offset of the main pier disconcerting to the overall balance of the bridge. mimram.com/en/?project=pa…

Troubled bridge over water; Matilda’s Bridge in Three Mills/Sugar House Island East London. Been in place two years, timber already in very poor condition 😭 what a shame supervenearchitects.com/projects/proje…
