Big up Jimmy, Appo & Aos for climbing this, Ducking from the police as they roll past and keeping an eye on suspicious taxi drivers.

One of the Liebherr Litronic range, The crane which stands at about 90ft is helping to develop a part of the £238 million Northgate development. On this site the 8,500 sq m of office space is close to being completed.

Back in September last year myself, OneByOne & Sui climbed another of the Liebherr cranes at the site of the new Travelodge - Here (http://goneeightyfive.blogspot.com/2009/09/liebherrwatkin-jones-tower-crane.html)

Seeing half a rabbit being flattened by 4 guys in a VW at about 50mph will give you nightmares, Gone...

It's parked up all ready to be erected on today at The old Royal Mail Sorting Office opposite Chester General Station.
So if you want to see a Tower Crane being erected and live local to Chester get down there I'll be there about 9/10 ish....
