    get a hand glider so u can get top angle 2
    Hi Mr J

    Well I don't need a hang glider for that - just take shots from Tyne Street which is a bout 100 feet above the Fishquay - if you have ever been to the Kingdom of Shields, you must have noticed the white light above the Quay - that's Tyne Street  ;)

    Yes - 2 years as a Cadet Engineer when I was nowt but a bairn, worked for Boston Deep Sea Fisheries on the Princess Anne (H261) out of Hull. Left owing to Maggie's decimation on the fishing industry  ;)
