Paul Webb Saturday, 14th March 2009 - 08:16:39 PM Talitha.Webb@ntlworld.com In November 1996,my company sent me to MPA for 6 months to run a team of fire alarm installers.I brought an old rover and explored. I was truly gob smacked when I found this bridge by chance. It is such an amazing piece of structural engineering in the middle of nowhere,and thanks to you site I've been able to see just how amazing and unlikely it really is. Truly,I thank you for answering so many questions that I had. Paul

Mike and Cherry Tugby Saturday, 17th January 2009 - 10:09:57 PM What a great piece of history and so well presented. It is a pleasure to look at such a well laid out and informative website. We have visited the Bridge on several occasions and never cease to be amazed at the sight of this lovely piece of engineering. It is a great shame that it seems to be going the way of most of the 'industrial architecture' of the Falklands. Perhaps we should start a pressure group - SOB - Save Our Bridge!

Andrew Newman Monday, 6th October 2008 - 08:56:17 PM bugs.king@horizon.co.fk A great piece of work, well done! I used to drive vehicles and mororbikes across the bridge regularly going to and from Walker Creek from 1991 until it closed. We even sneaked bikes on their side under the welded on bar and used it after it was closed !!

Audrey Monday, 8th September 2008 - 11:14:07 PM audrey@bethere.co.uk I have thoroughly enjoyed looking at your webpage Steve. It is amazing to see all those wonderful photographs of your grandad's bridge, and see the different stages of it being built. All the photographs, links and your narrative bring the whole thing to life. It is really great!

Excellent site, great design, great pictures and of course lots of Stephenesque humour... We should give the idea of founding a Bridge Owners' Club a go then. Cheers, Mario

Andrew Monday, 8th September 2008 - 07:54:52 AM evansandrew@mac.com Hey Stephen, Great site, very interesting, a lot of work in there. Photos amazing quality for 80 years old. You should get yourself down to the Falklands before the bridge gives up and swims off. Cheers, Andrew PS: I won't subedit the text because there's no errors of any importance anyway!

Please let me know what you think of it. Steve
