A clever trick?
« on: October 03, 2008, 13:15:22 »
How, pray, does an area of glass like this disappear almost overnight - without trace??

I would love to know how they do it.

I think you've lost us all there, can you explain what you mean?

I presume that the picture is of something Tim knows very well and that it was taken fromm Google Earth....only a guess.

Google Earth pictures are older than you think.....the free version anyway.

I might be totally off the beaten track here.

Hi All,
I drove past it the other day and thought the same thing!!

It's an old nursery site near Stow on the Wold between Stow and Tim's allotment in the Rissingtons.

My allotment is in Moreton In Marsh by the way.  ;)

Alan - if you passed by, why the ****  did you not call in??

'Overnight'?  A slight exaggeration - but it was cleared between a couple of visits to Stow, a few weeks apart.

Cannot understand how it was done. One hell of a lot of glass?
