And We Think Crossrail’s Got Problems
Berlin Brandenburg Airport is Berlin’s new airport, that was planned to replace all the current ones.
This is the last paragraph of the introduction in the Wikipedia entry.
After almost 15 years of planning, construction began in 2006. Originally planned to open in October 2011, the airport has encountered a series of delays and cost overruns. These were due to poor construction planning, execution, management, and corruption.[9] Autumn 2020 became the new target for the official opening date[12][13] as 2019 became too improbable.[15][16] A new TÜV report published in November 2017 suggested that the opening could even be delayed until 2021.
Crossrail could be up to two years late, but it looks like this airport could be up to ten!
But then major projects seem to be missing deadlines all over Europe. Even Spurs didn’t get their stadium ready on time!

About This Blog
What this blog will eventually be about I do not know.
But it will be about how I’m coping with the loss of my wife and son to cancer in recent years and how I manage with being a coeliac and recovering from a stroke. It will be about travel, sport, engineering, food, art, computers, large projects and London, that are some of the passions that fill my life.
And hopefully, it will get rid of the lonely times, from which I still suffer.
Why Anonymous? That’s how you feel at times.
