Work is slow, but they have been working on it I think. There are many layers to lay and pipes to repair (which they broke) but I'd expect they'll finish this part - it'll not stand them in good stead if they are trying to win a planning appeal if nothing else.

I've an idea. Why don't we suggest they convert the floors to an open air gallery for Havelock Walk artists? We could have large photos and some sculptures on show to passers-by on the train and they'll be reasonably protected from the elements if they are between floors.

Any photpgraphers out there want to create a large print to display?
