Those are my favourite locations.
Thanks a lot to Dr. Dave and Petrus for the info. I think I will be on the rooftop terrace in the Thistle hotel next time.

One question. Is is mentioned in the guide Block 94 crash gate: A real no-no, the Police will see you off from here quicker than anything! If you dare to venture into here.

Why is that? Is planespotting illegal in the UK?
