"The Thames is London’s great secret, hidden in full view. We do very
little with it, or on it, except complain how difficult it is to get
over and under".- A.A. Gill, New York Times 27th April
"There are two things scarce matched in the universe the sun in heaven and the Thames on earth" Sir Walter Raleigh 1552-1618
