Announcing The Telectroscope!!!

I was feeling whistfully steampunk after my last post so you can imagine my absolute delight when I came across this story on the BBC.

The picture above is one end of a 'tunnel' from Brooklyn Bridge in New York to Tower Bridge in London and it's called a 'Telectroscope'!

As Londoners on the banks of the Thames looked down the tunnel they could see a group of New Yorkers looking back at them and waving. Messages were passed using white-boards and Manchester United were told that they 'suck'!

The inventor of the Telectroscope tells us that it works by utilising a tunnel in the Earths crust and mirrors.....but is more likely to be fibre optics and a good imagination.

But do I care!!??

Look at it!!!!

Isn't it beautiful!

There's a full story here at the BBC with video.
