Shortly after wrecking my vocal chords doing karaoke in a bar near Tower Bridge on Saturday night, I strolled up to the bridge itself only to find traffic halted and the bascules raised – something I’d never come across before (although it happens around 1,000 times a year).
Whipping out my cameraphone, I shot this short video of the bridge closing.
Ooh it really works!
Actually, a thousand times a year is three times a day isn’t it. A bit odd therefore that one has never seen it.
Yeah – I wonder if most of those are at night…
nice camera work!
