London is very well known to me and I visit the city quite often. I lived and worked there at one time. So I can therefore congratulate you on making an excellent choice of “sights” although there are plenty more! Mind you, some of your facts are a little wide of the mark – what’s that about death sentences being imposed on members of the United States in the Tower of London? That’s news to me!
i have been to london in august 1977. i think i have seen all of these, except the ferris wheel.
