Bowstring Bridge

I used to carry the Great Central Railway, you know?

As the General Election approaches, vote for the party that promises to build HS2 and rebuild me. #HS2 #GE2019

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Did you know that there used to be 8 lidos in Leicester. All long gone.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Just been watching this film of myself. Brings back memories. https://t.co/XFgayXZhhn

UKIP has issued a weather warning for Leicester as they think I'm a gay bridge because I like bows.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Simon Jenkins said if HS2 is such a good idea why wasn't it built 10 years ago? It was, only it was 110 years ago and I was part of it!

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Anybody viewed me on streetview lately? I'm not there, but if you walk under me I appear! I am truly the first ghost bridge.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Why don't you open now? The First London Steeplechase Marathon! Do you jump, swim, take the stairs or queue for the lift? @twrbrdg_itself

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Do they have to switch off the speed and traffic light cameras for the wheelchair athletes in the London Marathon?

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

The process that led to the closure of the GCR and my demise, had "significant technical flaws". I am to be rebuilt at a cost of £40m. #rail

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Henceforth I will be known as The Royal Bowstring Bridge in honour of Richard III who was buried nearby.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

I hear the pool that usurped me is to be named after the Queen. Personally I feel that "The Royal Bowstring Pool" has a better ring to it

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Do you think I could programme a Raspberry Pi to rebuild me?

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Now HS 2 is going ahead, how about rebuilding me to carry it? That should save at least £500m

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

I discovered the Higgs Boson years ago. It only took a Black 5 and an A4 crossing me at the same time. Who would want to travel on a LHC?

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Yet more of Leicester's Rail Heritage is being destroyed: http://t.co/ige5mW77
Another crap council decision.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

I've been visiting my cousins in Denmark, The Gret Belt and Øresund Bridges. Two great bridges that also carry trains.

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

I have conclusive proof that I was "Hacked" by Leicester City Council. Anybody know the Mayor's Tel Number?

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Rumour has it that I have been recycled for the Centre Court roof. I'm opening for Andy Murray, etc. Remind you of anything Tower Bridge?

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

My first action as Mayor of Leicester is to build bridges!

[Bowstring Bridge @BowstringBridge]

Exit polls clearly show that I am the new Mayor of Leicester! Arise again Sir Bowstring Bridge. Beware of false knights claiming victory.
