We live in exciting times.
The nation has overdosed on bunting. bonhomie and booze, the Prime Minister survives a confidence vote with 40% of his party unable to support him - similar to Wil E. Coyote running in mid-air before his realisation that his support is no longer viable.
And we have done our best to paper over the cracks left by our little poll-creating attempts on Saturday night.
So we have pleasure in announcing the winners in the RTF Bridges competition, which saw a record number of entries and many fine pictures of a varied and interesting set of subjects - one proving exceptionally popular! As always, some people just shine that little bit brighter than their companions and the top three of those are:
In Third place was @firstadekit with a picture of a nice looking single span bridge enhanced by a rather fine steam locomotive passing over it
Second position goes to @Acedrone. Jason chose a modest bridge over a canal junction with a dramatic sunset for his image that came so close to winning
And congratulations to our First place winner @kvetner with this fine shot of the Gateway spanning the Mersey and the Manchester Ship Canal
Thank you all and enjoy the next in the series - INDUSTRY - running from now until Saturday June 18th
