re: Queen Victoria statue "it wouldn't be as easy to convince the people since it is in such a noticable spot.

Right you are.... I'll chain myself to that statue before I let them move her.

[skyliner]

Amen to that!

BTW - love your avatar - you beat me to it. I;m a SAR fan from way back in the steam days. Cut in on Webb engines!!

BTW (2) - To keep relevant - I like the current proposal on the carpark - has a certain presence about it. Would be heaps better over the entire ugly however.

The first panel was put up today! There were cranes blocking off the left lane of Rundle Street on the way past. I could see it on my way back, but I couldn't get to take a photo because the police had the intersection blocked off.

I wonder if the people doing the work was what sparked that gunshot scare for the carpark??

I reckon you could be right duke

Are you sure ATD this hasn't been approved by the DAP yet...

[Hutch]

Yep I saw that today myself, maybe the gunshot was the job giving someone the shits, the cops didn't look to worried bout the elleged gunshot.

I think i saw you, you were the guy on the bike next to me asking me what happened. I remember you mentioning you were going on the net to enquire about this , i didn't think it was sensational Adelaide though. If it is you let me know.

If so what an extraordinary coincidence.

Yeah, unless it's some sort of new high-tech communications array! I was pissed because I had my camera in my hand as I saw it.

[Matt]

Had a quick look at lunch... basically one 'thing' with 12 of the panels attached to it.
Here are some happy snaps, excuse the quality, only had my phone handy at the time.

[Howie]

Nice! I'm going to check it out at lunch.

Thanks for that.
