Tower Bridge closing Dec 04

Shortly after wrecking my vocal chords doing karaoke in a bar near Tower Bridge on Saturday night, I strolled up to the bridge itself only to find traffic halted and the bascules raised – something I’d never come across before (although it happens around 1,000 times a year).

Whipping out my cameraphone, I shot this short video of the bridge closing.
