Why spend money sitting in a cab listening to whingeing from your London cab driver, or having him fill your head with useless London trivia when you can sit in comfort and read it here for free?

In my opinion . . .

  1. But hail thou giant City of the world, / Thou that dost scorn a canopy of clouds, / And in the dimness of eternal smoke, / For ever rising like an ocean-stream, / Dost mantle thine immensity – how vast / And wide thy wonderful array of domes, / In dusky masses staring at the skies!

    Robert Montgomery (1807–1855), London, Religion and Poetry: Being Selections Spiritual and Moral

What I’m Reading waiting on the Rank

London's No 1 Dog-Walking Agency: On the hunt for the perfect job, with the help of man's best friend

By Kate MacDougall

A story of the author's 5 years and the dogs (and people) she meets along the way. There's Winston, the Labrador who isn't allowed to get muddy, even after owners split up and then enlist Kate in their custody battle. Amongst all this, there's Kate herself: trying to work out what she wants from life and when, and how to get there.
