And possibly.
 

3GOTLWF

 

3 graces on the Liverpool water front.

 


  • The Pier Head, Liverpool, which contains three historical buildings known, since 2001/2002, as "The Three Graces" (Royal Liver Building (1908-11) by Walter Aubrey Thomas, the Cunard Building (1914-16) by Willinck & Thicknesse with Arthur J. Davis and the former offices of the Mersey Docks and Harbour Board (1903-07) by Briggs & Wolstenholme with Hobbs & Thornely.)

  • I could be wrong about this one though.


    I LOVE doing things like this, they're really popular at uni right now.

    Did I say that I love Wikipedia? I think I did didn't I? Big%20smile

    I deserve it.

     

    I was just sort of taken over by some kind of demon and it made me do it. (honest)

     

    I really do feel bad though, does anyone else like doing things like this?

     

    Please say no. OK? Wink

    240V = PDOTNG (I know it's 240v)

     

    240V - power drain on the national grid.

     

    Apparently, it is not power, but the rest is right!  Could it be pressure?

    I think it could be potential. At school I remember learning Volts were the measure of 'potential difference' whereas isn't it Amps which are the measure of power Geek ?
