Every Picture Tells .....

No Pipe!

I've been in my new job for less than two weeks and today we moved offices to another building across town (Huddersfield).

Not had much time for a blipping today. Fortunately I managed to capture Lord Wilson on the way into work, just as the sun was just starting to illuminate the station facade.

The then Prime Minister Tony Blair unveiled this statue in July 1999. The  sculpture omitted the former Labour leader's most famous trademark - his pipe - at the request of his wife, Lady Wilson.

The 8ft (2.5m) tall bronze statue cost £70,000.
