Across the River



Our little gang spent a lovely sunny day today walking the South Bank of the river from the Greenland Pier (where we got off the riverboat from London Bridge) through Rotherhithe back to our starting point.

It's all a bit bizarre, this redevelopment lark - everything is so new and so identikit, and even one of the new bridges across a wharf inlet is called the "Barratt Homes" bridge. True to form, our only saving grace (and practically the only actual old buildings apart from converted warehouses) were the pubs. How jolly!

But it is, after all, the joy of walking the Thames that makes living in London so special...
