ali-cat Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 These workmen are installing bollards to stop nurses from parking on the pavement outside the Royal Victoria Hostipal in Belfast. Wonder how long it will be before they realise they can't go home??!!

AnOther Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Your image link resolves to:http://webmail16.orange.fr/webmail/fr_FR/download/Download.html?IDMSG=5682&PJRANG=2&NAME=image001.jpg&FOLDER=INBOX&STREAM_TYPE=IMAGE&EMBEDDED=trueI don't think you can embed an image like this, it needs to be hosted on a publically accessible server such as Photobucket etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickles Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I'm going to state the obvious here, just in case anyone really thinks it is for real: those bollards actually come in 2 types; one is permanently fixed in whilst the other can be removed for access. A mix of both would be used in a typical installation. However, it was a nice image, similar to "painting onself into a corner".RegardsPickles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnOther Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Well I have to say, having downloaded, enlarged and examined the photo, they do look very much of the permanent type which is what you would expect in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
