    Great work Rob!
    I love all this kind of stuff. In the end, when it is ready for action, I don't think it will matter that it does not support itself. The elephant was the same - but in all the costumes, music and action you didn't even notice it. Still magical I think.

    I agree David Im sure the overall effect is gonna be magnificent, I'm really looking forward to it - even more so after seeing the spider prowling today.

    Those filthy froggies !!

    I guess that the spidey will be using the Docks exit then instead of the normal exit.

    I managed a quick nip down there today - Unfortunately it was mid afternoon so the blue morning skies had gone and it was raining so I didnt venture too far. Good to see though and great that it was causing such a stir
