Fuck - that must be the notorious giant mutant 'Ottie' which is related to Nessie. It must be a mile high - run for the hills everyone!!!

And look at it - it is looking at you, as it looks at prey...

I used to do police line-ups at that station. Me and a colleague were approached by the police by the market and asked to volunteer. We did so willingly, as it meant we'd get time off work being civil servants, for working for the public good. I can't remember what we got paid, but it wasn't too bad for an hour or so each time.

The second picture is Saville Towers I think.

I'm trying to work out where that was, but can't work it out. There's a Stephenson Street near me, but it doesn't look the same (plus that's not in Dunston).

I guess there must have been a Scottish population around here, at least at some point in the past.
