Megyeri Bridge Budapest

This is the most recent bridge to be opened in Budapest and has an amusing story about the naming of the bridge. In 2008 the government held a online vote to name the bridge, the most popular name was the Chuck Norris bridge :-)
An American talk show host called Stephen Colbert heard about this and ambushed the vote, he urged his viewers to vote for the name to be changed to the Stephen Colbert bridge, he won the vote, but the government decided that it wasn't going to be called that and chose the Megyeri Bridge instead, incidentally no one had voted for that name.

I'm going to be helping Lamborghini with a problem for a few days, nothing glamorous and definitely no free car, any car but they have promised to find me a badge, any one want a badge haha.

Many thanks for all you hearts, star and comments on yesterday's Liberty bridge blip it's always appreciated :-)
