It looks like the Pink Floyd team have commissioned a new music video to an old song. I like it and think the grainy Scifi-esque landscape works really well with the dystopian nature of Welcome to the Machine.
Crossing the Ouse
New toy time! Crossing the Ouse aims to be a comprehensive history of crossings of the River Ouse. I’ve only posed one entry so far – Fishergate Loop (1961) – but I have the various bits and pieces needed for several more.
