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.
The Anonymous Widower
I’ve seen the photos of the lift to the Elizabeth Line at the Barbican elsewhere and I got the same impression on seeing yours; is it really so uninvitingly grubby and anonymous as it strikes me? I get feeling that in 10 years time, with wear and tear coupled with the inevitable limitations on the LUL/TfL maintenance budgets it will by then.
Love to hear your opinion.

I think it could be so in the case of fire, firefighters have easy access to the building and their fire header tank on level zero.
I heard one story of a metro in a tunnel, where to save costs, they cut out a fire access and sold off the site. The fire brigade then refused to sanction the design and the site had to be bought back to create the access. This cost a lot of money, as the developer had put a block of flats there.
