OK, just for a change, let's have a day off from Olympics coverage and reflection, although no doubt there will be more along fairly soon (trying very hard to avoid using the word "legacy" given its overuse at the moment).
Couple of things that caught my attention today, both supplied by the BBC:
- a magazine article on the website all about deserted building projects in China - check it out here. Obviously, the one that I thought was particularly interesting was the Wonderland Amusement Park - clearly an attempt by the Chinese at a blatant copy of WDW / Disneyland. There are more photos of it here. Truly bizarre.
- the second one was listening to the Simon Mayo show on R2 on the way home. Keane were on, and played one of their new songs, called "Sovereign Light Cafe", which is all about Bexhill-on-Sea! The video was also filmed there, and at the end even features the now famous cafe itself.
