While in the UK recently I took advantage of an extremely rare opportunity to tour the long-closed Battersea Power Station. It’s an iconic part of the London landscape, known to many for appearing on the cover of Pink Floyd’s Animals.
The tour was basically a community open house, to try and drum up support/input for the redevelopment plans. Visitors were asked to complete a survey…
…and this question caught my eye:
I really got a kick out of the localized UK English choices for the responses.
Also: see my pictures from the Battersea Power Station here and more of my London and Sheffield pictures here.
