I wouldn't mind taking a wander around there again some time myself. Been quite a few years since I last saw the place. The Olympics were just starting to raise from the ground, 2008. It had already changed enormously round there, couldn't get access to much of the area. Long way for me though, but I'll have to drag a bicycle down on the train and have a day taking in the sights. I see that the Big Breakfast house has now very much been hidden from view these days, now that all the greenery has come up. Still, would be nice to take a stroll by it.
The building had started and most of the place had been destroyed by the time of this video. Including the history and culture as well as livelihoods of local people. The corporate criminals responsible should be in jail.
The reflections building has been pulled down, v sad, lots of memories taken with it.... looking at it now, u wouldn't believe it, change, unfortunately.....

Lovely music, feels like I'm watching Pages From Ceefax.

Apologies for video quality in last minute or 2, this was 2011 remember.... 😞
You can't even see the white fence at the big breakfast house now, it's still there but very covered up....
I wish someone had taken video of Beckton alps b4 the ski slope disappeared and the whole place is noŵ an empty shell of what it once was.....
