Amazing Brittish Bridges

Here we have the Falkirk Wheel.

The Millennium Link Project restored the Lowland canals city to city and firth to firth. Not only are the two canals restored but the link at Falkirk, the Falkirk Wheel, has become one of Scotland’s, if not the UK’s, prime visitor attraction. The original eleven locks could not be reinstated so instead the world’s first rotating boatlift has been built, 115ft high equivalent to eight double decker buses stacked on top of each other.

that looks absolutely brilliant and blows away that stupid blinking eye bridge we have in Gateshead that won all those dumb awards, I am amazed it hasn't had more publicity, I'm planning a camping trip in Scotland next summer, so thanks very much for another sight to see

other bridge related things i can think of:

 

-a bridge over the river kwai. classic bridge

-a bridge too far. i dont know where far is but someone obviously decided to build a bridge to there.

-the 59th street bridge song. a song about a bridge?

-bridge. short for bridgette

-burning your bridges. wise if youre getting a little chilly. in fact burn other peoples, have a party.

 

bridges are good:D
