And tomorrow the Unilever roof garden will be open for Open House visitors rather than closed for corporate hospitality as it was today. Enjoyed the free ice cream and cup of tea though.

Many thanks for putting me on to the Wilton Music Hall. Even joined the sing-along. Great building. Great fun.

I also had the German tourists with me at Kings Place. Were you on tour one as well? There was also someone who just let their mobile ring whilst the guide was talking and then later answered it with a very loud voice whilst the poor guy tried to do his stuff. Some folks are so inconsiderate.

Er, yes, I was on tour one too!
Blogger accidentally meets reader!
And yes, that German bloke deserved to have his mobile thrown in the canal.

I went to see The Taming of the Shrew at the Wilton Music Hall a couple of months back - a very atmospheric building indeed and quite suprising to find it nestling amongst the modern housing blocks. Oh, and 120 Fleet Street is where I've been working for the last four years - never really appreciated the foyer when I've been in there before, it looks great in your photos though.

Thank you for telling us about Trinity Buoy a couple of years ago, so this year I went round myself, and I love this little lighthouse.

20 Fleet St: I had an idea that the exterior is not original? That is, it is a reproduction as the real deal was damaged in the blitz. I was working in Fleet St 99 to 2001 and a lot of work was done on the building, and I thought they were tearing down a temporary facade (over 50 yrs old!) to put up what we see today. Or were they reinstalling the interior that had been packed away for the duration of the war?

Ooh, I was at 20 Fleet Street on Saturday too. Perhaps at the same time, who knows.

And did you spot that the Rev George Bush presides over St Mary-le-Bow?

Thanks for noting that the Royal Courts of Justice were one of your highlights last year. Probably wouldn't have gone otherwise but did and it was fabulous. Even got to sit in the Lord Chief Justice's chair - all wigged and gowned.
