I was just reading Harry Potter to my little people last night, the bit where Harry first goes on to Platform 9 and 3/4 and I was wondering what is actually there and if people go and stare at it. So glad that they do, I know we would. Glad you had such an amazing trip, I hope you have a good weekend.

I love London town and enjoyed the trip along the Thames. So many new things among the very old that have changed the landscape and skyline but I would love to visit again and see it all.
