We're up for that Fred, Cheryl will no doubt want to see the power station again.
Me, I'll be walking Alby up and down the riverside.
The ladies love Alby.
Ooh, what a lovely little dog they say, as they bend down to stroke him.
Mind you, Cheryl rumbled me last time.
Have'nt looked at the tides yet.
I have got some old tyres if you want to cover your scaffolding on the front if you venture further upriver towards the uncharted Islands.
Might be worth booking places before they realise where we come from.

Good plan !
My Swmbo wants to stay at Stangate(she says it sounds romantic) again shell I give her a budget for shopping in London? Would 20 pound note be enough?
