And I, I live by the river
Well not exactly - but I did cross it quite a few times last week. At Waterloo, where the London Eye adds a wonderful new dimension to the traditional cityscape and via the new pedestrian bridge that links the Tate Modern with St.Paul's. The later gave a wonderful view of the sun setting south of Tower Bridge and was well loved by kids who found the contoured surface to be great for dragging their shoes along and making Formula 1 racing sounds (is this by design or happy accident?). Even better I finally worked out how to load photos from my new mobile (acquired three months ago) to my computer. Technophobe? Moi?

Nick, the 'new' wheel and 'new' bridge have been there for eight years now!
"Well I was there too...and you know what they said? Well some of it was true....".
I lived in that wonderful city for 12 years before I finally found the courage to leave. I don't really miss it in the slightest. It has changed considerably though since I left and I think that is one of the amazing things about it; it's constantly evolving. As Ben Johnson is often famously quoted as saying "When one is tired of London, one is tired of life". I was certainly yawning by the time I left!
