Talk:Crystal Palace

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.

WHy do you people (i dont know who) keep combining teh artcile on teh place crystal pacae with the artcile about the bfamous building? or shoudl the building one be renamed The Crystal Palace? - fonzy

Well, they shouldn't. Shame on them. BTW, would you please provide sources for the "reason it didn't make money" thing and the "target for the Germans" thing? --Ed Poor

ok i will but what eaxclty do you mean about the germans thing thats what they did. They decided to take them down because they feard th germans coudl navgate there way around. But it was stupid as they coudl use anything. Aot of stuid thinsg were doen then.

example: teh shop bromley and russel, in Bromely tehy blackend out the name bromely becaus ethey thought the germans woudl know where tehy were if tehys aw teh word Bromely. - fonzy

I'm interested in battles, and I would like to know more about what people of various cities have done to lower their risk of aerial bombardment. If I get enough info, I could write an article about it. Cheers. --Ed Poor

-ok well i'm not quite shore how to implement a source or where to get one for the two water towers being taken down. It was a shame though. TV began in the south one. Logaie baird did his test TV transmissions from it. - fonzy

-- Ed poor do you wnat to help me on this article. - fonzy

What you've done is great. You can do more here, or branch out to other things you know about. Hmm, maybe I'll spell-check it. --Ed Poor

-well i want abit of help as there is an awful lot to write about On this buidling. - fonzy ps if your intrested in history this is quite intresting. I especilaly like lokking at old phots of the place. (maybe its beaue i live in the area.

I'm not shore but was it Punch Magazine that gave it the name "Crystal Palace". - fonzy

Pictures? Does anyone ahve pictures ones taht acan be used. Pictures of what it was like. What remains? - fonzy

I may have some pictures of the dinosaurs by the south lakes that I took myself- when I come accrosss them I'll scan them in- I've a feeling they may have my children in as well tho, in whaich case they wouldn't be suitable... BTW I used to be obsessed with the crystal palace dinosaurs when I was a child! quercus robur

I may go out and take a picture of what remains of teh North and South bases myself. - fonzy

rE-WRITTEN ARTCILE BY FONZYS FARTHER

- thankyou for adding it on 62.7.111.139 (mick) ironicly i just gonme on hen you added it, but why did you say it was yor farther origianlly? - fonzy

- because I cut and pasted teh comment you left at the bottom, which said "my farther" and I did not notice til it was too late.

- ooo i see, ok. Well the artcile does need to be npoved abit

I believe the dinosaurs have been finnished renovating. its still closed off so that trees can grow i bileive - fonzy

fonzy- how did you get the photo's? Can the public now get to the dinosaur area? my children were really disappointed to find that area sealed off when we went there last summer... quercus robur

Those photo's I took were on a special tour lst summer when they were redeveloping them, just to show people what was going on. At the moment the area is still celaed off to the public becuase they want the new trees to grow, but i heard ppl can go seem them on tours, btu i beilevthey are painted in their original colours, which is not i dont think the colocurs you will remebmber them. - fonzy

o btw Latest News The whole of the Top Site is now closed off as tehy are tidying it up from all the tipping and hazadous material. They are now asking ppl in Bromley what tehy want to happen to the top site. Its annoying It being closed off i wnated to get better picture of the higehr level station. I did take one of the North and South Bases of teh watertowers, the laste remaing collum and some omore terraces. - fozny

PS if you want to suggestion anything about teh top site, therea a form on bromley councils website www.bromley.gov.uk

Re dinosaur statues- you are right, the megalosaur is a little to the left isn't it? Thanks for spotting that :-) quercus robur

jsut wondering. are you going to add taht photo to Crystal Palace/Images ?

Um not really sure how to do it- feel free to if you want to tho... i'd like to keep it on the main crystal palace page as well tho.... the photo is at Image:Iguanodon1.jpg- cheers quercus robur

That's an extremely confusing first sentence. I had to read through it twice just to understand it. Maybe someone could change it? Pingveno 03:11, 4 Dec 2003 (UTC)
