They're building one of the CrossRail stations behind my office, on or more correctly under, what used to be, apparently, the oldest bowling green in London. It's a bit of a shame because apparently it was a nice place to sit and have lunch of a summer's day. They have apparently promised to put it all back how it was, but who knows when that'll happen?
However, recently they've obviously been using pile drivers or something similar, which has allowed me to recreate the famous Jurassic Park shaking water cups moment several times from the comfort of my office chair, with no need to do all that messy genetic manipulation and being chased by dinosaurs. Clearly, this has more than makes up for the loss of a bowling green.
