Many thanks. It looks huge! As I've now retired and have more
spare time, I'll go myself during the week.

Thanks. It looks nice, but the lift shafts seem out of place. Why do
lifts need enclosed shafts anyway? You'd think they would only need two
L-profile poles at opposite corners, if they needed anything at all.

They are similar to the ones at St Pancras, and before that on The Lawn
at Paddington.

I didn't see any jobsworths, and no-one was being stopped from taking pics.
All was relaxed and friendly. I just tried to avoid the ubiquitous 'can I
help you' blue-vested people.
