I am still in London ....... Bit of work ....... Bit of messing about with friends ......... I even watched some TV ....... I watched Evan Davis' program on the economics of London vs The economics of the UK .... Called 'Mind the Gap' ........ it was interesting and London comes out looking kind of mega with everywhere else in the UK struggling to keep up ........ it was amazing how all the places in London I used to hang out in ..... back in the day ...... have become the total drivers of the economics of the Capital ......... notably Silicon Roundabout ........ Insight and Image.net both started there....... I think Image.net was the first digital company to be based there ........ hehehehe........ probably not true ........ but back then it really was not the hipster hang out it has become now............ perhaps we should have bought some property there back then ? ........ oh well ......... hehehehe.......... :-))))))))))))

Boris Johnson the Mayor of London claims something along the lines of ... London is the best Capital in the world ........ not sure you can really claim that without inviting contension ........ but it certainly looks pretty mega from the top of Tate Modern were he is interviewed in Evan's Show.

I had not even realized a whole new container Port 'The London Gateway' in being developed at Thurrock on the Thames really to service the increasing demands of London ........ I made this picture above when I photographed the container Port at Felixstow ........ the other mighty container Port that already services London ...... and the rest of the UK.
