    Churchill's War Rooms are impressive - but it's quite a long tour to do. (or long for me because I took my time and read the info around!)
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    Ride in the London-eye for your girls also seems like a given to me, it's as iconic for London as the Eifel-Tower is for Paris. Girls like selfies so it's bit of a must

    We may, but it isn't notably high on our list, having done the Orlando Eye already.

    If Seamus wants to combine a high view with something that isn't an Eye, perhaps he can go up The Monument. Get off at Cannon Street, go up the Monument for a view, then pop over London Bridge to London Dungeon and the Britain at War Experience. Tower Bridge is the next bridge on the river.

    Hmm, my map is out of date. It's been a while since I went t'dungeon.

    You clearly don't understand my relationship with my wife. Outside the boudoir, it is I who follow orders, not she. So if they wanna go, it will be fine by me. So far, they are being pretty ho hum towards the idea. And there was no need to be snarky frags, I am not Husar.

    So it turns out there is a good chance I will be in London for some of the first week of July. My father was asked to speak at Oxford and I might be tagging along. This thread has been very helpful! Also down to meet with any Orgahs in London.
