Hi Andrea that electric plant is very near the river- I pass it quite a lot and never paid it any attention until this week. How incredibly stupid of them to put it there. But incredibly resiliant people. Gloucester people are slightly weird like that in 1642 the Royalists lay siege to the city and cit them off for a hell fo a long time, enough time for serious in-breeding to kick in, and 450 years later those survival skills are still there. I had the good sense to turn around at Tewkesbury friday as I was due there for a meeting if I had stayed I'd still be there. Thanks for your commiserations. Ursula is talking about his successor...which is healthy
