Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 We should shut the Tay bridge too just to be sure. You can't unlance a boil, the puss has already dripped into Fife. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tamthebam Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I can mind seeing film of the Tacoma Narrows Bridge* as a nipper- it made me feart whenever we went across the Forth Road Bridge (*US suspension bridge. It used to sway in the wind due to resonance or something. Look up footage on youtube for a laugh) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 This is what happens when the SNP use cheap Chinese steel instead of hard working steel from the UK. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlyerTon Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 Those of us in the west will probably remember the Erskine bridge was closed for about 3 weeks in August 1996 after it was hit by an oil rig. Didn't re-open to HGV's until 22 Dec 1996. Apparently the Erskine Bridge has a lifespan of 121 years (2092) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tree house tam Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 It's about 35 minutes in quiet traffic. That's like living in Stenhousemuir and working in Glasgow 35 mins ? Aye on a bicycle maybe. I can do Perth to Leith, car parked etc. In 45 mins when quiet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 I cannot comprehend the mindset of someone who would choose to live in Fife as well as making a hellish daily commute to Edinburgh. It's the worst of both worlds Wait until you have kids. Then you'll comprehend it. Don't worry though, just like people on Death Row, you'll gradually accept your fate. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted December 4, 2015 Share Posted December 4, 2015 (edited) Who's the SNP(bad) transport minister?? Grrr. He could probably do with being sacked. The c**t.First task of the next one should be to sack the senior management who are currently 'looking after' the bridge. Personally, I'd shoot them. Stalin had the right idea.

D.A.F.C Posted December 4, 2015 Author Share Posted December 4, 2015 Apparently the SNP allowed the bridge maintenance to be privatised. Cost cutting maybe to blame? Certainly looks like a part of the bridge that's hard to get to never mind repair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
