Well I didn't see it on the news today - I did see it last week when the wind was too strong and the reporter got a bollocking from the man in charge because he said it was the end of the recovery because they had ran out of money!!

Showed how journos put words in peoples mouths.

Well maybe, but at least a month ago a spokesman for the museum said on Radio 4 that they only had enough money for one more week, and couldn't afford any more delays.
