@Tom Whitworth: make your best offer!
I love London and would visit again in a heartbeat.
@breakfastpop: Evidently you can pick up some bargains there.
I was set to buy Butler's Wharf - figured I could make back the price in a jiff. But then I read the Thames is not included. Sorry. No deal. Ta-ta!
@drbj: Everything's negotiable!
Nicomp, London is beautiful! But expensive! Great photos! Thank you for sharing, Pece & Blessings!
a nicker for the lot.
@cally2: As long as you write a hub on nicker exchange rates. ;)
I'd prefer St. Paul's Cathedral ? Or 10, Downing Street ?
Is the financial crises over there that bad that they have to sell all this stuff? ^^ I'd take the British Museum for a Burger and a few fries. Or is it fish and chips?
