Day Off...... Sweet!!

Sodding body clock has me waking up at 7.30am on my day off! Whist on a brief trip into town I stopped off by Wearmouth Bridge (not to jump off but I noted that the bases are painted in some grip proof grease) but to take a semi artistic shot! On this day I learned that:

The first Wearmouth Bridge of 1796 proved to be a catalyst for the growth of Sunderland. It was rebuilt in 1857 by Robert Stephenson, and again in 1927 when this steel arch bridge was constructed.
