    I take it we're all aware of the pretty cool MSE promotion for £15 deducted off both your first two orders at Waitrose ("save15", ends 31 August 2008, £50 minimum spend - new customers only).

    We got some really nice treats in - and about time to place my 2nd order.

    Thanks - I have that record somewhere, probably warped so it's unplayable now.
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Opposite side of the river from Wapping. In other words, head South over Tower Bridge (taking the opportunity to lock car doors, close windows, write will etc)* and turn left just after the pub at the end.

    It's incredibly expensive these days but then they do have a wonderful view of North London.

    You are right - I checked with my mother, and it does have an M & S food shop, though (-:
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.
  • It's a road, going from Tower Bridge eastwards towards St . Saviour's then southwards to Tooley Street. It's also the name for that bit of riverside. It was the setting for most of Oliver Twist, but has gone up in the world a bit since then! Butler's Wharf and St. Saviour's Dock are there - the latter was opened by the Benedictine monks who owned and ran Bermondsey Abbey, now Southwark Cathedral.

    It was a huge dock & storehouse area, and the biggest in London during the 19th century.
