Fire at Millennium Point
Posted by: Simon on: 14th April, 2008.
I thought I would spend some time and tell you about the groovy fire alarm system at Millennium Point. It was installed by Solid State Security for those who want to know.

Update to Millennium Point floor numbering part III
Posted by: Simon on: 11th April, 2008.
They have the large signs on the lifts finished. From our last post, they have repainted the number “0″ and is no different from what was there before, odd in my book. However the lift themselves and parts of the signage need to be changed.
I have had to direct two groups of people today to [...]
