We 'did' Rome recently, my wife reckons we should 'do' London, we were both born there and only moved out when we got married. hardly done any of the tourist bits, I lived by Lords cricket ground (very central for anyone that doesnt know London), and I now work in Paddington (daily), she lived just North of that. Really should do it, have a good time Howie.

going on an open top bus tour is actually quite good fun.

Winchester cathedral is an impressive building too, and has an interesting place in diving history.

Yes, I've forgotten the Old Hardhat Divers name but he certainly earned his money on that job

Was it William Walker? Spent about 6 years in pitch black flooded foundations. IIRC there's a big statue of him there.

Winchester Cathedral is fab as cathedrals go. Some excellent medieval and onwards graffitti around the choir stalls for starters.

The books of remembrance (is that what they are?) for the fallen from the Hampshire Regiment are there too, and you can ask nicely to have them opened and left at a particular page. We had it opened to my great-great-uncle's page one day we were there.

I know them intimately, glance at the walls when your down the and take a second to thing what a clever bloke that Chasey is to hold back the Thames like that

Work was caried out by Protim but I was the consultant.

Did you know Tower bridge has a skipper just like a boat??
