He's certainly got his finger on the pulse of what's happening around him. As for City Road, I worked there on The Independent back in the late 1980's. If you ever go back there search out Bunhill Fields, the non conformist cemetary. It's where the likes of Blake and Defoe are buried and it is a fascinating stop off from the hustle and bustle only yards away.LAC EMP 2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/01999825212820503519noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220897337333701839.post-152297092172170942012-07-12T09:06:58.635+01:002012-07-12T09:06:58.635+01:00London is vibrant and buzzy.
