Or do you think of it as the John Deacon Beacon?

<BB<

Yes, the John Deacon Beacon does have a ring to it!

Can I ask a couple of quick questions:
Do you have to take the lift, or can you ascend stairs?
Also, do they ever have celebrities abseiling down the beacon for charities?

<BB<

Yes - visitors to the Beacon these days have to use the lift - when they have finished enjoying the view, visitors return to the lift and a member of staff escorts them back down to the ground level

I see an event involving people abseiling for charity took place in 2018

Would you like to have a read-through and let me know your thoughts?

Thank you - just one tweak needed and then it's ready for the next stage.

"120 metres or approximately 394 feet" --> approximately 120 metres or 400 feet

When I woke up this morning, my first thought was 'It's 390 feet to two significant figures, not 400 ' but the Editors sorted it out for me, phew!

..But 400 feet to three significant figures - go figure

<BB<

400 is 394 to one significant figure, so that wasn't precise enough, but 394 was too precise!

Congratulations! Your Entry is on the Front Page today
