Gasworks take over the Green

0905240004A couple of weeks ago a fairly inoccuous looking little camp sprang up on Shepherd's Bush Green. There to do 'essential gasworks' it said, which I thought was fair enough.

Since then however the boundaries of this camp have steadily increased outwards and the volume of heavy building works traffic has steadily increased to the point where there are now piles of sand and building materials serving the various holes being dug in and around the Bush.

Then this morning I saw a very ominous sight - this 'temporary' site has now had a full scale concrete and paving stones ramp built up and around the portakabins, which now have deckchairs on them for the builders to enjoy the sun from on the verandah! How long exactly are these things going to be there?!
