Ahem...I earnt my priority pass, I worked 8 hours on Saturday, greeting 4,000 people on Saturday (most of whom had bailed from the Gherkin queue and stomped over to us to glare at it from our balcony).

oh my god - who on earth put that bloody great dildo in the centre of london ?

well done for waiting. i once queued for 3 hours for a go on this.

Congrats on your patience. I gave up at the sight of the queue on Saturday, wandered round a fantastically deserted Spitalfields Market and then went back later when the weather was better and got lots of external gherkphotos instead.

looks like a Faberge gherkin of sorts

Five hours of abstinence and you knocked one out in the Gherkin toilets?

Worth the wait?

Better than the useless toilets in my new office block, anyway.

Zed, yes! I thought I was the only one who thinks it looks like a penis (NB not mind!!). I call it the Knob.

I've always called it the Condom but have no clue why. It does not look anything like a condom, as it is neither translucent pink nor slimy. You can get an excellent and very close view of It, in any case, from Gary Rhodes restaurant on the 24th floor of Tower 42 just across the road (more or less). View from the champagne bar on the 48th floor is also good but in a different way.

I can avow to the 4.5 hour wait. I queued from 12:00 until 4:40 on the Sunday. Apart form the queuing comeradie, being almost at the end of the line meant I could witness the opposite personality trait - the queue jumper. Dozens of people inserting themselves toward the rear of the queue and then insisting "I was here all the time".
