Gosh, i thought they were demolished already, although havnt been down that neck of the woods for a good while now to confirm my thoughts.

Some before and after photos would be great .... although i cant find anything on google which gives a date or any info. :(

I've just been informed that the demolition has been moved
to an estimated time of between 11am and 1pm. Suppose this
gives the neds enough time to gather for a spot of mischief :evil:

Not sure Fossy... I don't think you're allowed to tell fibs when public safety is concerned? It will depend on the weather and conditions on the day no doubt :)

You could go to Queens Park or the Necropolis and watch it from afar?
