The picture challenge
Armin thinks I can probably tell what the strange building on the photo in this blog post is. I can. So, Armin, shall I give it away or just offer some addtional hints. How about: "The great point of this tower is that it will be entirely useless". This one was opened on Guy Fawkes Day in 1935 - about 30 years before I was born within a stone's throw (a long one - but still) of the tower. Actually, Armin gives a hint with the file name for the image.

The hint was enough to Google it and come up in a couple of minutes with this:

Hehe - yes it wasn't supposed to be hard :-). It's Monday morning after all.

Looks like I made that too easy. The next one will be more difficult....
