@gordonkerry Agree! At least it blocks that cold westerly wind in winter. I stood on the old Spencer Street platforms every evening after work for several years bracing myself against that wind.

But now I work at Docklands and so experience the wind again. #CannotWin

@perkinsy @gordonkerry True. When I was a little kid it seemed like the literal end of the world.
