    LilyP - we found the Postmans Garden on our last trip - poignant but fabulous - here are just a couple of the dedications.

     And here is the oldest surviving house in London - it was preserved because someone built a new facade around it.  In the first world war a zeppelin bomb caused all the covering tiles to fall off, revealing this underneath ....just by Smithfield market
