Canary Wharf was a novelty when it first opened, but that is a bit jaded now. The London Museum there is not bad, if a bit small |

Spitalfields has not changed much, leading up to Petticoat Lane. Also the Leadenhall Market has a charm about it. |

Still cannot quite believe she is not with us. I keep thinking she will send us a picture of old London. She must have trawled the net to find them. :-D <3 |

Some were artists, although I didnt recognise any names, and other by celebs. I would think they will be auctioned off like the others when the World cup is over. |

Been on the page for them, but they said the map would be available soon. Saw one on the news at Trafalgar Square. I guess they will be like the Snowmen, and Penguins and Snoopy statues. Painted by celebs. :-) |
