You weren't trying to call me, but...

Huh, I just got a "wrong number" text from someone who wanted to know what station to go to for the Rainforest Cafe. So I texted them back to say Piccadilly Circus. Although I suppose I should probably have said it's equidistant between Piccadilly Circus & Leicester Square, take your pick.

Baratron London Transport Services. Ask me how to get anywhere, I'll find you a route...

Walk along the Thames towards parliment (Down stream but I think you can see it from there)
Just after the palace of westminster (The other name for parliment Look for big Ben Sticking out of it) turn right and walk across Westminster bridge. Thats city hall just on the other side.

Er...no, that's County Hall, where Ken&Co used to be when it was the GLC. City Hall, where Ken & the GLA are now, is off Tooley St between London Bridge and Tower Bridge.

Well, at least I've got you on the right side of the thames, just keep following it in the same direction It takes an hour. Otherwise take a tube to tower hill (You can get on at Westminster and follow the district line east) Come out of the station walk down beside the old bit of roman wall to an underpass which will put you next to the Tower of London. Around the side of which (Clockwise) you will find Tower bridge. Cross it and you will see a large testicle shaped building as you do. That would be the one your looking for.

You could also tube to London Bridge station and Walk along Tooly street from there, it's roughly the same distance maybe even a smidgen shorter but not as pretty.

I'm very familiar with the place - I do it almost weekly. All routes seem to take about 45 minutes (so just faster than walking), but feel annoying as the amount of walking/changing required prevents one doing any work en route.

The inhabitants like to think of it as the Headlamp. They don't seem to like thinking of themselves as sperm...

I think there's a boat from westminster to either london bridge or the tower. That would give you plenty of work on route time.
