It's another beautiful day today, the sun is shining and (as Carol Kirkwood glowingly informed me this morning on BBC's "Breakfast") it's going to continue with temperatures reaching the staggeringly summer-like 27 degrees by the weekend...It's a shame, therefore, that the two German tourists, loaded with luggage (who obviously weren't told about rush hour before they boarded the First Capital Connect into Central London), decided to look the wrong way when we emerged from between the apartment blocks on Bankside, thus completely missing the stunning view from the Blackfriars bridge towards London Bridge, St Pauls Cathedral, Tower Bridge, HMS Belfast, the Tate Modern, the Globe and Canary Wharf, all set along the Thames, glittering like a carpet of liquid gold into the sunrise...and instead chatted excitedly pointing out to each other the shaded Unilever building and a barge...
I nearly told them...
