Aldgate East Crane Climb
I've climbed the crane on this seemingly abandoned building site about 3 times now. I'm not really sure why, as the views aren't great, and it's not that high... That said, there doesn't seem to be a great deal of security present on site, and it makes for a nice relaxing climb if one has nothing else to do! I've been up with "Jim Gillette", The Winch, Gary, Ercle and my friend Amanda. I've climbed the jib, and the crows nest, and even exited the site by hopping across to the hotel next door, through the air-con maintenance areas, into the janitorial areas and down the lifts. Craning in style, some might say!

That's the crows nest, and here's a photo of Gary.
Naughty.
I don't ever seem to have taken a good photo up here. So here are two crap ones instead. A slightly fuzzy big three, and the jib.
