ColinB, I was scrolling down to type in your reply, but you beat me to it :lol:! MattC, if you get one on each cheek, don't go hanging any brown eyes, for you may have a shuttle bus come driving through - five o'clock tour - number seven :lol:! Smile, brother! Cheers!

I was just thinking that when Matt smiles, it would look like the gates were opening........

It's interesting they've removed the white guttering - must have caused issues for the shuttle buses.

Nobody has ever been able to tell me.....

If the gates were designed & built in 1957, how come he is wearing his 1970's Vegas-style flared trousers ?

stan from tintane wrote:also hate to tell you this colin but as you look at the gate on the right its actually paul mccartney doing his elvis impression - he's playing left handed you see.
Funny thing is that if you walk through the gates and then look back he moves to the other side - how about that then.
Oh, they just wanted to keep the design symmetrical !

And each gate a mirror image of its twin, too !
