It took Egypt 11 years to build the 3.8km Aswan Dam.
They’ve been working on alterations to Leeds City Station for about half that time and it’s still not complete.

The Darling Buds single “Hit the Ground” similarly failed to get airplay in the wake of the Lockerbie bombing. See also Altered Inages’ “Dead Pop Stars” after the murder of John Lennon.
