The Thames Barrier ✅

Well OK, I’ve been to, The Thames Barrier before. But not since July 2008! So it was getting seeing it again, some 11 years later… At least, I was not wearing Lycra this time… LOL! 🙂

Great day out in London : 10/04/2014

I had so much fun in London today! Here are some photos I took.

My favourite is the one of Tower Bridge. Here is what someone said about it on twitter “Who put that building there? It’s stopping the bridge from closing”. I had not even noticed that, till I read the comment! Would love to say I planned the photo, to come out like that. But no, it just sort of happened!

Oh and I have also tick off another three London Underground stations that I have used! I added Brixton, Clapham North and Monument to the list. The full list can be found at www.gordon-valentine.com/travel/railways/uk-national-rail-network/.
