Yep indeed! Don't you just envy the energy and motivation of some people?

Out of interest if you've got Google Earth you can just make out the top of
the tower at 52"46'46.15N 1"12'13.61E

Erm! I don't think any of the windows where big or wide enough in the tower
and anyway 40/50 foot up is a bugger to haul the wadrobe up. ;-)

Bah! it didn't show he finished it...what a bummer.

He'll prolly build it all himself

That thought had crossed my mind

You have to hand it to him though, he's a tryer

Is the scaffolding still in place?

I think the Google Earth imagery is a few years old now so very probly
before the project was started.

An interesting project might be a whip-round, for a small fee every month,
you get to pick a structure visited on one of these programs, to see
how it is now, and the closest member goes round and takes some pictures.

I doubt whether he did finish it, as its the first time I have seen that
program end without showing the final result of the concept.
mind you he did pick the right spot though...up with the birds in the
trees.
