I came across a gas pressure gauge still connected to the meter via the

I am surprised that they let you into the house again. It must have
been nice to get your gauge back; hadn't you missed it?

Hibernian Person, I actually threw it away, as it was coated in light rust,
well the case was. Did you want it?

I am told that the new stand at Worcester racecourse was built in the
wrong place, and they had to move the racecourse to pass in front of
it...

A building, built in the 1950/60s at Manchester uni, was built the wrong
way
around. It was clear the large main entrance faced the back.



any idea which building?

I'm struggling to remember the layout of the place now, but I think that
there were a couple of buildings that faced onto courtyards at the back,
even though Oxford Road seemed like the natural frontage.
