Tay Road Bridge openedIn 1966, the Tay Road Bridge designed by William Fairhurst was opened by the Queen Mother. This finally replaced ferry service for vehicles across the Tay estuary on the east coast of Scotland, although the present rail bridge had been in use since 1887. The 42-span road bridge is one of the longest in Europe, 1.4 miles (2250-m) long, 32-ft (10-m) above water level, and links Newport in north-east Fife to Dundee. Tolls are collected on the southbound route are used for maintenance costs. Construction began on the £6 million project in 1962. Willie Logan, director of the construction company and five other workers died while the bridge was being built, and are commemorated by a 51-ft (15.5-m) tall obelisk at the Fife end.« |
Double Martini
A businessman enters a tavern, sits down at the bar, and orders a double martini on the rocks.
After he finishes the drink, he peeks inside his shirt pocket, then orders the bartender to prepare another double martini.
After he finishes that it, he again peeks inside his shirt pocket and orders the bartender to bring another double martini. The bartender says, "Look, buddy, I'll bring ya' martinis all night long - but you gotta tell me why you look inside your shirt pocket before you order a refill."
The customer replies, "I'm peeking at a photo of my wife.
When she starts to look good, I know it's time to go home."
