Alas poor Yorick

I'm really enjoying London on this visit. I'm in a great position right beside south bank so am able to wander around and look at all the sites. I briefly contemplated going on the London Eye but then suddenly realised there lies madness...the best I could do was eight floors up in the OXO building. Had a great time at the Tate Modern and the Lichtenstein exhibition was excellent. In the evening I went to see The Tempest at the New Globe Theatre, it was brilliant, albeit with uncomfortable seats. For those who don't know the Globe is a replica of the original Shakespeare theatre. It's open air at ground level and people can see the play in standing room for £5, those of us with a bit more cash sit in seats under the balcony with the rest if the upper classes. I bought a very nifty cap at the shop with a skull and some text surrounding it..."Alas poor Yorick". V. cool! Today I set off on my eight day whirlwind tour of the UK. First stop is back to Cardiff.
