    2 February: Take a walk on the Thames foreshore. At low tide a large area opens up to be explored; the area is littered with a range of ancient & modern items which tell us about the river'shistory.

    When the water is low, there are lots of spaces where you can go down to the bank and take a look at the bits and pieces on the pebbles.

    Take a boat ride but remember that these things don't have a strong motor: the more people on them, the slower they go!

    Don't go there if you are not that interested in water. Or breathing. Or London.
