      Possibly, but keep it quiet, and maybe nobody else will notice :blue thumb::snork:

        Should have gone to Specsavers NG:snork:

        @NG,don't worry I also call it London bridge but I think that was the one that the Yanks bought from us and had it reconstructed over there as they hadn't got any very old bridges over there and wanted to be like us:mute::biggrin:

          OH NO :sad: someone else noticed ! :doh:

          I did @Kandy ..... last saturday :heehee:
          Those titles wouldn't have been seen on here, but the site didn't display them properly, so I had to add them as attachments. Its lucky I didn't label them 'A bridge', and 'A spike' :snork:
          Edit: or maybe I should have :biggrin:

            You actually mis-interpreted the title. It was saying it was 'A' bridge in London. Therefore 'A' London bridge, or .......London bridge in short :yay: :heehee:

              The Yanks bought London Bridge from us thinking it was Tower Bridge, apparently when it didn't open up in the middle they were a bit miffed and it has now ended up in the desert.
