Guess what - it's down again!

As from about 18:30 the site is down. Called the briefing staff and they weren't aware.

They checked with engineers who are "looking into it!"

NATS IT department are responsible for keeping it up.

At the height of the "Dirty Tricks" war between BA and Virgin, BA were trying to lift the London Eye into position and were having problems.

Virgin hired the Goodyear blimp to fly over the site displaying on its side the message:-

"BA can't keep it up!"

The same appears to apply to NATS IT department.

They got it up again (so to speak) a short while later and it was back in service at 18:50
