    They're just brilliant them there cooling towers, they should paint them up with massive sun flowers all over them....

    Always says to me when I've been down Motorway on a long trek, that I'm near home and another 10 Min's will see me parking up, fantastic they are, and should bloody well be kept up, not felling....Grrr.

    They are falling down, The company I work for has been working on that site for th last 2 1/2 years and lots of bits fall off everyday, theyare not safe and it would cost more than £3 million to put them right. At least that is what I was told by the fellow that is in charge of the demolition.
    It was only announced a few weeks ago that they were definitely being blown up, but we have known since before Easter that they were coming down this weekend.

    Amen to that.....

    ... I'll be there at 3am to give them a send off.

    Always known them as the "Salt and Pepper Pots" due to the different holes in the top.

    The one over here is a replica...

    ... of a sculpture at the company's site in Avesta, Sweden, that was created by artist Lars Andersson.
    The Sheffield bison was the work of his son, Jonas Hohental.
