  4. Stolen from Facebook: Flying monsters………… Looking along St Augustine’s Reach towards the City Centre and the tower of St Stephen’s Church from a viewpoint next to the Watershed. ‘Then’ photo, taken on the 7th July 1932 and AI coloured and first posted on another Bristol FB group by Nick Howes, shows the huge German airship, the Graf Zeppelin, flying over Bristol. At almost 800ft long it truly was a monster in the skies. My father who was seven at the time can remember seeing this, in his words, ‘huge silver sausage gliding slowly and silently over the city’. The Graf Zeppelin toured around the UK and flew over most of our major cities and we later found out that the airship was actually photographing Britain’s dock installations and infrastructure, the photos of which were to prove very useful to the Luftwaffe in the Blitz of the Second World War. ‘Now’ photo, taken by me a few days ago, shows the same scene some 90 or so years later in modern times.
