Is South Bank where the London Eye is?
And that book market thingy?
I like that bit.

I just find it terribly dull. There's very little along much of the route, just a concrete path, often laden with tourists. Southwark Bridge and westwards is good, as is NT eastwards, but between the two points is incredibly tedious.

Yep.

Ditto.
Plus there's 'musicians' and quirky shops and stuff. If I was ten I wouldn't like it. But when I was ten I didn't like anything except Fighting Fantasy books, Rick Astley, and Johnny Hates Jazz, which is just rock-solid evidence that I shouldn't be trusted.
That's where we were when it snowed!

But that's the bit where you look across the river and look at tne three buildings in a row which look like they belong in Northern Europe at various points between 1600 and 1820.
God, I'm a geek.

Yeps. 
Shattered Dreams was a fantastic pop song! (Alright, it was adequate.)

Whoa, whoa, whoa. Cool your boots both of you and let us know if it was a Rick Astley concert or a Johnny Hates Jazz one where you were when it started snowing.
It's important...

What three buildings, at what point? Takes the best part of 45 minutes to go from the Eye to the Market, and as zooo will testify, I'm quite a fast walker.
And to be fair, that quoted date range is true of much of Westminster.

Erm, I'm a bit too squiffy to reference anything, to be honest. They are-ish-, just before the bridge after Waterloo bridge, before St Bride's and the series of NCP carparks with glass between the levels.
The sixties = Great for Music
The sixties = Shit for architecture.
Just turning everything off after our 50 minute powercut is over.

He flipping is.
I like walking along the river. Pretty much whichever part.

Blackfriars bridge? Can't think of what you mean offhand. I'll remember next time I'm along there.

So very, very true.
