I was feeling homesick. I think anybody who has lived in London winds up
seeing many/most of these. I left off so many things worth a glim:
climpompidras niddle (as tony hancock called it) on the embankment, the
thames barrier, kensington market, Portobello Road Market, Marx's tomb in 
Highgate, the list probably *is* endless..

Harrods food hall is worth a viz, the polychrome tiles are wonderful. 

If you want a nostalgia trip for a photo op. the zebra crossing at Abbey
Road studios is always good for a laugh. But make sure Boyd has bare feet
on the black stripe..
