Cognicenti of Paddington will know what this is.
The famous roll up bridge, which we are moored right next to. For the first time, we were on hand today when they gave it its weekly test/ demo. Here we go
A simple set of hydraulic pistons curls it up like a caterpillar. Very elegant I think. It's more of an architectural showpiece than a necessary object, but people turn up at noon on Fridays to watch.

I love it! Like the bridge in 'The Nightmare Before Christmas' that unfurls.
