B. Henderson Asher's Moments of Mirth (Free subscription) | 5 hours ago
I bought chewing gum at lunchtime, but I seem to have lost it between Tesco and the office. Bah. I did the fairly obvious lunchtime walk from here - along to Tower Bridge and across, then back to London Bridge and across. I like the bit in front of Custom House, which is pretty much directly opposite the office where there are a couple of wooden posts that look like they might have been pier supports...

December 1 means it's officially okay to talk about Christmas without too many grumps narrowing their eyes and telling you off. If you've got a couple of hours free this morning, then the Tower Bridge area is the place to be to get you right into the festive mood. Joining a choir, Christmas trees and some (*stares at the sky*)… made-up snow, last year's X Factor winner Alexandra Burke is set...

Ask anyone who travels (or indeed has ever travelled) by car on the Greenwich Peninsula what the major problem is and they will probably tell you that all roads lead to the same place; quite literally. There are two major 'A' roads going from east to west and a 'B' road in between; these all lead towards Central London either via Blackheath and Deptford or Greenwich town centre itself. Then there are...

Singaporean in London (Free subscription) | yesterday
A friend whose family is flying into London for a visit asked me for some recommendation for where to bring them. I was stumped. Despite the number of activities listed by Timeout London, you'll be hardpressed to find an activity that caters to the entire family without breaking the bank.

Looks like Alexandra Burke will do anything to ensure it's not a Silent Night. The X Factor winner, 21, has agreed to lead a rowdy bunch of karaoke singers to kick off the countdown to Christmas. She'll be belting out festive hits at London's Tower Bridge on December 1. Should be quite a Hallelujah chorus.

My West Sacramento Photo of the Day (Free subscription) | 25/11/2009

It carried electric railcars (similar to the present Light-rail) loaded with passengers and freight." See the Tower Bridge History for more information....

Some of the most important news in our community isn't what happened yesterday, it's what's happening today and what might happen tomorrow.
