Paddington station alone saved my weekend, it was one of the most incredible things I’ve ever seen, we actually missed our train because I was being a prick wondering around staring at the ceiling…

I should point out that I am an Isambard Kingdom Brunel fan boy and have always wanted to go to Paddington, I’ve been along the clifton suspension bridge when I was a kid but I don’t think I cared all that much because I was a child, unless it was covered in sugar or made a loud bang I didn’t care all that much, contrary to Brunel’s original design, the bridge did neither.

Everything he made was 100x too big for it’s purpose, yet absolutely perfect in it’s design, to this day the term brunellian has been used to describe gigantic engineering projects, it was made to last and it’s amazing, I suggest you go and instead of giving yourself a tumor trying to work out the tube map look up to the steel sky constructed by Brunel in 1854, totally amazing. Totally ace.

Brunel built the modern world, everyday fighting against politicians and rival engineers that were constantly trying to stand in his way or discredit him, fuck them, fuck you, he’s a Great Britain and you’re not so go to Paddington and stand is awe.

If he was alive today, I’d wank him off and give him a tenner.
