So does anyone actually have any pictures of the stadium site bar the ones on the first pages or is this the stadium discussion thread now?

That building is like a porta cabin. Ive done some jobs like that. Those mini co-ops are the same.

Yes i appreciate that, infact its a similar design and build philosophy to Mcdonalds drive throughs.
I understand they are in effect Lorry sized containers that are bolted together. You can see this with the verticle columns at the front of the building.

Weston's Grand Pier is nearly complete, will have taken about 8 months to build and furnish when it opens, maybe not the biggest of structures, but still a challenge given that it is at sea, am sure the stadium project will be built in 60 weeks.
