London full of people? Well, there's a surprise! Actually I still get a buzz when I visit, but probably because I know that I'll be going home to the wilds of my native East Yorkshire.

I don't think the new buildings are particularly offensive, with the exception of the British Library, which had the decency to hide behind a high fence for many years.

I've always said that I'd never want to go back and live there, but on Location, Location, Location last night, they were in Chiswick and I suddenly got small pangs of home-sickness even though I left in 1976.
