"LONDON BRIDGE IS FALLING DOWN"? - OOPS! IS RE-OPENING!

“LONDON BRIDGE IS FALLING DOWN”? - OOPS! IS RE-OPENING!
As the London landmark Tower Bridge is about to reopen to ships for the first time in 5 months following a facelift, an on-site exhibition sheds new light on this masterpiece of engineering.

Building the bridge (that opened in 1894) took eight years, the lives of 10 men, 30,000 tons of granite and Portland stone.

Happy Ruby Tuesday and Rednesday!
