The article about that "super sewer" talks about how few Londoners ever get close to the River Thames, and remi9nded me that I made a point of doing so, when my mother and I were visiting Greenwich. The tide was low enough that we went down a flight of stairs to a mud flat. We saw a grey heron down there, which I added to my (somewhat lackadaisical) birding life list.

Not a usual tourist stop, I know; we also went to the old Greenwich observatory, and I watched the ball drop announcing noon.

That thread about the divorce fail is beautiful. Good for her and for that judge!
