A view from our B&B window in East Putney, quiet and pleasant with great breakfasts
Day two found us in an unusual place, Merton Industrial Estate. As you can see by the sign, the building in the background is used for the production of "The Bill" a police drama series produced by the BBC. I posed nervously here wondering if "Smithy" would come out and ask me to "assist him with enquiries"
But I was safe. The building is closed down at the moment as the series is between productions. All of the signs (except the one you saw me with) are covered up so the locals do not confuse the realistic set with a real police station.
After escaping from Sun Hill, we ventured across the river to the Tower of London pausing to admire the Tower Bridge from the riverside walk.
Inside the tower are 9 ravens, ledgend has it that if the ravens leave, the tower will crumble to dust, here you can see one of the ravens, which is probably wondering if wombat would make a good dinner.
The tower was very interesting (and sad as you heard about the people who were executed here). These guards marched through while we were there.
