BBC NEWS | England | Cornwall | Super-crane in Eden granite task
The crane arrived last week on more than 30 lorries and then took a week to put together.... Sculptor Peter-Randall Page will spend a year turning the stone into a giant seed which will be the centrepiece of the new education building at the Eden Project.
I have been to the Eden Project and a fine morning out it is (and having an MA in Agircultural Science - I find crop plants from around the world more interesting than most) So why am I unhappy that I have an uneasy feeling that the cost of this huge crane and the rock botherer will be paid for by the tax payer...

Lottery surely? That¥s what paid for the Eden Centre in the first place isn’t it?

Big cranes like that cost >£10K per day. Let's hope it is the lottery mugs who are paying.
