Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDTJ - This image shows the entrance to Greenwich Pier, a key River Thames passenger pier located in the Royal Borough of Greenwich, South East London. The prominent blue signage identifies the pier as part of London's integrated river transport network, used by both commuters and visitors travelling along the Thames.
Greenwich Pier is served by TfL River Bus services operated by Thames Clippers, linking Greenwich with central London destinations such as Westminster, Embankment, and Canary Wharf. River transport plays an increasingly important role in London's public transport system, offering an alternative to road and rail travel while also supporting tourism along the Thames corridor.
The modern pier building features a curved glass frontage, with people visible entering and exiting the terminal. Pedestrians in the foreground highlight the pier's dual role as both a commuter hub and a gateway for tourists visiting nearby attractions including Greenwich town centre, the Cutty Sark, and the Maritime Greenwich World Heritage Site.
Photographed in daylight under clear skies, the image captures the everyday activity of London's river transport infrastructure. It is well suited to editorial use covering public transport, sustainable travel, London tourism, riverside development, urban mobility, and life along the River Thames

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDTY - This image shows a row of outdoor food stalls trading in Greenwich, South East London, with the tall masts and rigging of the Cutty Sark rising prominently in the background. The stalls form part of the informal street-food scene that serves the large number of tourists and visitors drawn to Greenwich's historic riverside attractions.
Vendors offer a range of international street food, including freshly cooked hot dishes prepared to order, reflecting London's diverse food culture and the popularity of casual, market-based dining. Temporary gazebos, menu boards, and portable cooking equipment underline the pop-up nature of the stalls, which typically operate during busy weekends, holidays, and peak tourist seasons.
The scene was photographed in daylight under a clear blue sky, with people browsing, queuing, and chatting as they move between food stalls and nearby attractions. The juxtaposition of modern street food culture with the historic maritime backdrop highlights Greenwich's dual role as both a heritage destination and a lively contemporary leisure area.
This image is well suited to editorial use covering London street food, market culture, tourism, outdoor eating, urban leisure, and the everyday life of one of London's most visited historic districts.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDW2 - This image shows an Indian street food stall operating in Greenwich, South East London, specialising in hot Kathi rolls. The menu banner advertises a range of fillings including chicken roll, lamb seekh roll, paneer roll, and chana roll, reflecting the popularity of Indian fast food adapted for the UK street-food market.
Kathi rolls originated in Kolkata and have become a familiar feature of London's diverse street-food scene, offering spiced fillings wrapped in flatbread and cooked fresh on a hot griddle. The stall is set up under a temporary gazebo, with an open cooking area that allows customers to watch food being prepared to order, reinforcing the immediacy and authenticity associated with street-food culture.
The photograph captures a working moment during service, with ingredients laid out on the counter and the vendor actively cooking. The informal setup, disposable containers, and visible condiments underline the practical, mobile nature of pop-up food trading commonly seen in busy tourist locations such as Greenwich.
Taken in daylight, the image is well suited to editorial use covering London street food, Indian cuisine, outdoor markets, multicultural food culture, casual dining, tourism, and everyday life in one of London's most visited historic districts.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDXW - This image shows a wide riverside view of Maritime Greenwich in South East London, capturing several of the area's most recognisable transport and heritage features in a single frame. Visible along the riverfront are the Cutty Sark, the domed entrance to the Greenwich Foot Tunnel, and Greenwich Pier.
In the foreground, an Uber Boat by Thames Clippers passenger vessel travels along the River Thames, illustrating the continued importance of the river as part of London's public transport network. River bus services connect Greenwich with central London and Canary Wharf, serving both daily commuters and tourists.
The juxtaposition of historic maritime landmarks with modern river transport highlights Greenwich's dual identity as a place of global naval heritage and a functioning part of contemporary London life. The Cutty Sark's tall masts recall Britain's age of sail, while the sleek river boats reflect current priorities around sustainable and alternative transport.
Photographed in daylight under clear skies, the image conveys a sense of scale, activity, and continuity along the Thames. It is well suited to editorial use covering London transport, river commuting, heritage tourism, historic landmarks, urban geography, and the evolving role of the River Thames in the capital.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDXY - This image shows a Thames RIB speedboat travelling along the River Thames as it passes the National Maritime Museum in Greenwich, South East London. The fast-moving rigid inflatable boat carries passengers on a sightseeing or leisure trip, creating a visible wake on the river as it moves through one of London's most historically significant riverside settings.
The National Maritime Museum forms part of Maritime Greenwich, a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognised for its concentration of historic buildings linked to Britain's naval and seafaring past. The grand classical facades visible along the riverbank provide a striking architectural backdrop, contrasting with the modern, high-speed leisure craft in the foreground.
River-based tourism has become an increasingly popular way to experience London, offering views of major landmarks from the water while also highlighting the Thames as a working and recreational river. The image captures this blend of heritage and contemporary leisure, with historic institutions framing modern river activity.
Photographed in daylight under a bright blue sky with scattered clouds, the image is well suited to editorial use covering London tourism, river transport, leisure boating, historic landmarks, maritime heritage, and the continuing role of the River Thames in city life.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDY5 - This image shows the historic Greenwich waterfront along the River Thames in London, with the Old Royal Naval College prominently visible across the river. The symmetrical classical buildings and twin domes form one of the most recognisable architectural ensembles in the capital, reflecting the site's long maritime and naval heritage. A passenger vessel is seen travelling along the Thames in the foreground, emphasising the continued importance of the river as a transport route and tourist attraction.
The Old Royal Naval College was originally designed in the late seventeenth century by Sir Christopher Wren and Nicholas Hawksmoor and later served as a naval training establishment. Today, the site is part of the Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site, recognised for its outstanding contribution to architecture, science, and maritime history. The buildings now house cultural institutions, educational facilities, and public spaces, attracting visitors from around the world.
The image captures themes of British heritage, maritime history, tourism, and urban riverside life. It is suitable for editorial and commercial use relating to London landmarks, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, historic architecture, travel and tourism, the River Thames, and the cultural identity of Greenwich within the wider city of London.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WDYT - This image shows an upward-looking detail view of the Cutty Sark in Greenwich, South East London, focusing on the ship's tall masts, complex rigging, and decorative bow section. The photograph was taken in the evening, with soft, fading daylight and patches of blue sky and cloud providing a dramatic backdrop to the historic vessel.
Built in 1869, the Cutty Sark is one of the last surviving tea clippers and a powerful symbol of Britain's maritime and trading past. The intricate network of ropes, spars, and yards visible in the image illustrates the sophistication of 19th-century sailing technology and the skills required to operate such vessels at speed across global trade routes.
The evening light enhances contrast and texture, drawing attention to the craftsmanship of the ship's construction and the elegant lines of its rigging. By isolating the upper structure of the vessel against the sky, the image emphasises scale, height, and the enduring visual drama of tall ships.
This photograph is well suited to editorial use covering maritime history, historic ships, nautical engineering, heritage tourism, London landmarks, and atmospheric studies of historic vessels at dusk or in evening light.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WE19 - This image shows a directional sign for the Thames Path in Maritime Greenwich, South East London. The sign points walkers along one of the UK's best-known long-distance footpaths, which follows the River Thames from its source in Gloucestershire to the Thames Barrier in East London.
Behind the sign, partially obscured by spring foliage, are the classical facades of the Old Royal Naval College, part of the Maritime Greenwich UNESCO World Heritage Site. The combination of historic architecture, mature trees, and formal iron railings reflects the carefully planned riverside landscape that characterises this part of Greenwich.
The Thames Path is heavily used by walkers, joggers, commuters, and tourists, offering continuous public access along the river and connecting major London landmarks. Signage such as this plays an important role in wayfinding and promoting sustainable, car-free movement through the city.
Photographed in daylight under a clear blue sky with fresh green leaves on the trees, the image is well suited to editorial use covering London walking routes, urban green space, heritage landscapes, sustainable transport, outdoor leisure, and life along the River Thames.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R4WE1G - This image shows a wide view across the River Thames from Greenwich in South East London, looking toward the O2 Arena at North Greenwich and the modern skyline of Canary Wharf beyond. The distinctive white dome of the O2, originally built as the Millennium Dome, is visible alongside the cluster of high-rise office towers that define London's Docklands financial district.
In the foreground, boats travel along the River Thames, emphasising the river's continued role as a working transport corridor as well as a visual and recreational feature of the city. The movement of vessels contrasts with the static skyline, highlighting different layers of London's urban life.
The scene illustrates the dramatic transformation of East London since the late 20th century, where former docklands and industrial areas have been redeveloped into major commercial, entertainment, and residential districts. Viewed from Greenwich, an area rich in maritime heritage, the modern architecture across the river underscores the city's constant evolution.
Photographed in daylight under a blue sky with scattered clouds, the image is well suited to editorial use covering London cityscapes, urban regeneration, riverside development, transport, travel, and the juxtaposition of historic and contemporary London.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R55J7N - This dramatic black and white photograph shows an upward, low-angle view of Battersea Power Station, one of London's most powerful and recognisable industrial landmarks. The composition exaggerates the scale of the structure, with two of the iconic chimneys rising sharply into a turbulent sky, creating a sense of dominance, weight, and authority.
Built in the 20th century as a coal-fired power station, Battersea once supplied electricity to much of London and became a symbol of industrial strength and state power. The stark monochrome treatment strips away modern distractions, allowing the viewer to focus on texture, mass, and geometry. Heavy brickwork, vertical lines, and symmetry reinforce the building's imposing presence, while cloud formations heighten the atmosphere and drama.
Beyond its architectural importance, Battersea Power Station holds deep cultural significance due to its appearance on the cover of Animals by Pink Floyd, where an inflatable pig was famously flown between the chimneys. That image transformed the building into a global symbol of political critique, capitalism, and institutional power, linking industrial architecture with protest art and music history.
Now extensively redeveloped, the site stands at the intersection of heritage and regeneration, embodying both Britain's industrial past and its post-industrial transformation. This image, with its stark contrasts and confrontational viewpoint, is particularly well suited to editorial use exploring themes of power, industry, urban change, cultural memory, architecture, and the visual language of dissent.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R55J7R - This image shows the Palace of Westminster, home to the UK Parliament, viewed from the River Thames in central London. The Gothic Revival complex dominates the skyline, with the Elizabeth Tower and the Victoria Tower rising above the riverside trees.
In the foreground, Lambeth Bridge spans the Thames, providing a strong visual lead-in across the river toward Westminster. The bridge connects the City of Westminster with Lambeth on the south bank and is a key transport crossing in this part of London.
The Palace of Westminster is one of the most recognisable symbols of British democracy and governance. Originally rebuilt in the 19th century after a catastrophic fire, it now serves as the meeting place for the House of Commons and the House of Lords. Its riverside setting reinforces the historic relationship between the Thames and the development of London as a political and administrative centre.
Photographed in daylight under a blue sky with scattered clouds, the image combines heritage architecture, river transport, and urban infrastructure. It is well suited to editorial use covering British politics, government institutions, London landmarks, heritage tourism, constitutional history, and the River Thames as a defining feature of the capital.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2R55J81 - This image shows The Trafalgar Tavern, a well-known historic riverside pub located on the south bank of the River Thames in Greenwich, South East London. The building's distinctive cream and pastel facade faces directly onto the river, making it one of the most recognisable landmarks along this stretch of the Thames.
Originally built in the early 19th century, the Trafalgar Tavern has long been associated with Greenwich's maritime past and has been frequented over the years by sailors, merchants, politicians, and visitors. Its prominent riverside position has made it a popular destination for locals and tourists alike, particularly for dining and socialising with views across the Thames toward the Isle of Dogs.
The photograph was taken in the evening, with soft daylight illuminating the waterfront and creating a relaxed, social atmosphere. Boats are moored in the foreground on the river, while people can be seen gathering along the riverside promenade beneath rows of trees, suggesting a busy and convivial scene during fair weather.
This image is well suited to editorial use covering London pubs, riverside architecture, Greenwich tourism, hospitality, leisure, British social life, and the enduring appeal of Thames-side landmarks in the capital.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K7NBHP - In late 1994, a number of people began to show symptoms of a neurological disease similar to CJD, a fatal disorder that occurs naturally in a small percentage of people, though usually only later in life. This new form of the disease would go on to be identified as variant CJD (vCJD), occurring primarily in younger people and caused through eating BSE-infected meat. The first known death from vCJD occurred on 21 May 1995, when the 19-year old Stephen Churchill died although the UK government continued to emphasise the safety of British beef and, in September 1995, concluded that there was 'insufficient evidence' to link BSE and vCJD. It was not until 20 March 1996 that Stephen Dorrell, the Secretary of State for Health announced that vCJD was caused by eating BSE-infected meat.
177 people (as of June 2014) would go on to contract and die of the disease.
Regulations and bans of British beef
When BSE was identified, the United States banned the importation of British cattle in 1989, and 499 cows who had been recently imported from the United Kingdom were killed. The United States slaughtered an additional 116 British cows in 1996.
Between December 1997 and November 1999, the British government banned the sale of beef on the bone.
A week after Dorrell's announcement, on 27 March 1996, the European Union (EU) imposed a worldwide ban on exports of British beef. The ban would go on to last for 10 years before it was finally lifted on 1 May 2006, although restrictions remained on British beef containing vertebral material and beef sold on the bone. The ban, which led to much controversy in Parliament and to the incineration of over one million cattle from at least March 1996, resulted in trade controversies between the UK and other EU states, dubbed a Beef War by media. France continued to impose a ban on British beef illegally long after the European Court of Justice had ordered it to lift its blockade, although it has never paid any fine for doing so.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2K7NBHY - The National Covid Memorial Wall in London is a public mural painted by volunteers to commemorate victims of the COVID-19 pandemic in the United Kingdom. Started in March 2021 and stretching more than one-third mile (five hundred metres) along the South Bank of the River Thames, opposite the Palace of Westminster, the mural consists of approximately 150,000 red and pink hearts, intending to have one for each of the casualties of COVID-19 in the United Kingdom at the time of the mural's commencement. The intent was for each heart to be individually hand-painted
utterly unique, just like the loved ones we've lost
The mural was organized by campaign group Covid-19 Bereaved Families for Justice, with the help of the campaign group Led By Donkeys. Volunteers cleaned the wall and removed graffiti before hand-painting approximately 150,000 red hearts over 10 days from 29 March 2021. Bereaved families filled these hearts with names of lost loved ones and messages, with more continued to be added over the subsequent months. Through the project was started without council permission, it gained widespread support and public recognition so has not yet been removed by authorities. As the text faded, volunteers have also traced over writing with permanent black marker pen to ensure their longevity.
The mural stretches more than one-third mile (five hundred metres) along the South Bank of the River Thames from Westminster Bridge to Lambeth Bridge, opposite the Palace of Westminster. Being outside of St Thomas' Hospital, it also encompasses an older plaque dedicated to the 1994-6 human BSE outbreak.
On 29 March 2021, Labour Party leader Keir Starmer visited the mural, which he described as a remarkable memorial, before calling on Boris Johnson to visit the mural personally and engage with the families of the deceased. Johnson later visited the wall for quiet reflection and was criticised by the co-founder of the group, who said that the visit, was a sham

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2JMA8E1 - Situated between the town of Stroud and the village of Chalford, Brimscombe Port is a stunning location at the foot of the Cotswold escarpment, next to the River Frome and Thames and Severn Canal.
Brimscombe Port started life in 1779 and became a key transfer point for sea-going barges to narrow boats accommodating some 100 vessels at its height. Sadly the canal and basin were filled in after the Second World War. The canal headquarters, which then became a school, was demolished as part of road straightening in the 1960s. The Port took on a new lease of life as an industrial estate, becoming home to a number businesses, including the family run ring binder company Benson & Sons. Sadly, as businesses moved out of the site, it started to fall into disrepair.
Recently, the Port was a temporary home to a number of Community Interest Companies whilst viability for the site was assessed and funding was secured.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AXKD48 - In July 1620, the Mayflower sailed from Rotherhithe and picked up 65 passengers, probably from Blackwall, then proceeded to Southampton on the south coast of England to begin loading food and supplies for the voyage to America. At that time, the English Separatists, who later became known as the Pilgrim Fathers, were mostly still living in the city of Leiden, in the Netherlands. There they hired a ship called the Speedwell to take them from Delftshaven in the Netherlands to Southampton to join the Mayflower.
The ship's master, Christopher Jones, died shortly after his return in 1621 and is buried in an unmarked grave at St Mary's Church. No one can be sure where on the Rotherhithe peninsula the Mayflower was berthed, but the Mayflower pub near St Mary's Church claims the honour, and lists the names of the Mayflower passengers on their wall. The building itself, despite external and interior appearances, dates only from the 1950s. The extent to which the pub was damaged during the Second World War, and was rebuilt or simply restored is uncertain

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy 2AYHJHA - The Marine Policing Unit (MPU), formerly known as Thames Division, is a Met Operations branch of London's Metropolitan Police Service. Its forerunner, the Marine Police Force, was England's first recognised preventive police unit.
The MPU is headquartered on Wapping High Street, in the east of the city, from where it operates a fleet of vessels responsible for policing the River Thames within Greater London.
Today the MPU is responsible for waterborne policing of the 47 miles of the Thames between Hampton Court in the west and Dartford Creek in the east. Above Hampton Court, Surrey Police have responsibility for policing but a launch is supplied by the Environment Agency. Below Dartford Creek, responsibility lies with both Essex Police and Kent Police, who have combined forces and formed a joint marine unit, with Kent based at Sheerness and Essex based at Burnham-on-Crouch.

Based at a police station on Wapping High Street and with 22 vessels at its disposal, the MPU also provides support to the rest of the Metropolitan Police and to the City of London Police when dealing with incidents in or around any waterway in London. A specialist underwater and confined-spaces search team carries out searches throughout the Metropolitan Police District. The unit also has 24 officers who are trained in rope access techniques and trained to carry out searches and counter demonstrator operations at height.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy H552FP - Southwark Cathedral or The Cathedral and Collegiate Church of St Saviour and St Mary Overie, Southwark, London, lies on the south bank of the River Thames close to London Bridge. It is the mother church of the Anglican Diocese of Southwark. It has been a place of Christian worship for more than 1,000 years, but a cathedral only since the creation of the diocese of Southwark in 1905.
Between 1106 and 1538 it was the church of an Augustinian priory, Southwark Priory, dedicated to the Virgin Mary. Following the dissolution of the monasteries, it became a parish church, with the new dedication of St Saviour's. The church was in the diocese of Winchester until 1877, when the parish of St Saviour's, along with other South London parishes, was transferred to the diocese of Rochester. The present building retains the basic form of the Gothic structure built between 1220 and 1420, although the nave is a late 19th-century reconstruction.
There is a large stained glass window dedicated to William Shakespeare, depicting scenes from his plays, at the base of which is an alabaster statue representing the playwright reclining, holding a quill.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy EBFWFN - Richmond is an affluent suburban town in southwest London, 8.2 miles (13.2 km) west-southwest of Charing Cross. The town is on a meander of the River Thames, with a large number of parks and open spaces, including Richmond Park, and many protected conservation areas, which include much of Richmond Hill. A specific Act of Parliament protects the scenic view of the River Thames from Richmond.
Richmond was founded following Henry VII's building of Richmond Palace in the 16th century, from which the town derives its name (the Palace itself was named for Henry's earldom of Richmond, North Yorkshire.) During this era the town and palace were particularly associated with Elizabeth I, who spent her last days here. During the 18th century Richmond Bridge was completed and many Georgian terraces were built, particularly around Richmond Green and on Richmond Hill. These remain well preserved and many have listed building architectural or heritage status. The opening of the railway station in 1846 was a significant event in the absorption of the town into a rapidly expanding London.
Richmond was formerly part of the ancient parish of Kingston upon Thames in the county of Surrey. In 1890 the town became a municipal borough, which was later extended to include Kew, Ham, Petersham and part of Mortlake (North Sheen). The municipal borough was abolished in 1965 when, as a result of boundary changes, Richmond was transferred to Greater London.
Richmond is now part of the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. It has a significant commercial and retail centre with a developed day and evening economy.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCE77H - Designed as a new headquarters for Ernst & Young, the ten-storey 1 More London Place provides the company with 35,000 square metres of high-quality, flexible office space on the south bank of the River Thames between London and Tower Bridges. A full-height atrium links the building's two ?fingers' of office space, creating a dramatic entrance space which is crisscrossed with three bridges per floor, with glass balustrades. The central concrete core and four peripheral steel cores are clad with extruded aluminium panels. The 24m-wide column-free floor plates benefit from generous amounts of daylight through the atrium and fully glazed facades, helping to minimise the building's energy usage.
Ernst & Young (trading as EY) is a multinational professional services firm headquartered in London. It was the third largest professional services firm in the world by aggregated revenue in 2012 and is one of the Big Four accounting firms.
The organization operates as a network of member firms which are separate legal entities in individual countries. It has 167,000 employees and more than 700 offices in more than 140 countries. It provides assurance (including financial audit), tax, consulting and advisory services to companies.
The firm's history dates back to 1849 with the founding of Harding & Pullein in England. The current firm was formed by a merger of American firms Ernst & Whinney (a successor firm of Harding & Pullein) and Arthur Young & Co. in 1989.[9] It was known as Ernst & Young until 2013, when it underwent a rebranding. The acronym EY was already an informal name for the firm prior to its official adoption

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCE7B7 - Blackfriars, also known as London Blackfriars, is a central London railway station and connected London Underground station in the City of London. It provides local Thameslink services from North to South London, and limited Southeastern commuter services to South East London and Kent. Its platforms span the River Thames, the only one in London to do so, along the length of Blackfriars Railway Bridge, a short distance downstream from Blackfriars Bridge. There are two station entrances either side of the Thames, along with a connection to the London Underground District and Circle lines.
The main line station was opened by the London, Chatham and Dover Railway with the name St. Paul's in 1886, as a replacement for the earlier Blackfriars Bridge station (now the present station's southern entrance) and the earlier Blackfriars railway bridge. This increased capacity of rail traffic through the Snow Hill Tunnel to the rest of the rail network. The Underground station opened in 1870 with the arrival of the Metropolitan District Railway. The station was renamed Blackfriars in 1937 to avoid confusion with St Paul's tube station. It was rebuilt in the 1970s, which included the addition of office space above the station and the closure of the original railway bridge, which was demolished in 1985.
In 2009, the station underwent major refurbishments to improve capacity, which included the extension of the platforms across the railway bridge and a new station entrance on the South Bank. The underground station was rebuilt at the same time, and work was completed in 2012

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy RM9ARR - City Hall is the headquarters of the Greater London Authority (GLA), which comprises the Mayor of London and the London Assembly. It is located in Southwark, on the south bank of the River Thames near Tower Bridge. It was designed by Norman Foster and opened in July 2002, two years after the Greater London Authority was created.
For the first two years of its existence, the Greater London Authority was based at Romney House, Marsham Street in Westminster. Meetings of the London Assembly took place at Emmanuel Centre, also on Marsham Street.
City Hall was constructed at a cost of ?œ43 million on a site formerly occupied by wharves serving the Pool of London. The building does not belong to the GLA but is leased under a 25-year rent. Despite its name, City Hall is not in and does not serve a city (according to UK law), which often adds to the confusion of Greater London with the City of London, which has its headquarters at Guildhall. In June 2011, Mayor Boris Johnson announced that for the duration of the London 2012 Olympic Games, the building would be called London House.
The predecessors of the Greater London Authority, the Greater London Council and the London County Council, had their headquarters at County Hall, upstream on the South Bank. Although County Hall's old council chamber is still intact, the building is unavailable for use by the GLA because of its conversion into, among other things, a luxury hotel, amusement arcade and aquarium.

Description: Tony Smith image Flickr 4125164857 - 'I watch the sun go down on London town
I wait for the night voices to sound
I smell the pain upon the breath of the lost &
lonely
I hear the thoughts that whisper in the hearts of all men.
I'm the helpline operator &
I'll spare you the time.
I'm the intimate stranger. Your problems will be mine.
Put your tongue into the mouthpiece
And whisper in my ear.
Admit to me
the things you can't admit to yourself.
Admit to me &
no one else.
Everybody's looking for someone
to tell them what they want to hear.
Everybody's looking for true love
To help them feel what they cannot feel.
I'm the helpline operator, can you spare me the time.
I'm the intimate stranger. Your problems will be mine.
I'm the helpline operator.
Helpline operator. (X3)
True love will come
True love will come
Helpline operator.

Apparently tripods are no longer allowed between here and Westminster bridge. (According to a security guard who gently moved me on, its a fair cop guv etc..).
Seriously though, anyone with a camera can be suspected these days. Read the following link, know your rights. Pass this on too.

Description: Tony Smith image Alamy DCE7HP - Designed as a new headquarters for Ernst & Young, the ten-storey 1 More London Place provides the company with 35,000 square metres of high-quality, flexible office space on the south bank of the River Thames between London and Tower Bridges. A full-height atrium links the building's two ?fingers' of office space, creating a dramatic entrance space which is crisscrossed with three bridges per floor, with glass balustrades.
The central concrete core and four peripheral steel cores are clad with extruded aluminium panels. The 24m-wide column-free floor plates benefit from generous amounts of daylight through the atrium and fully glazed facades, helping to minimise the building's energy usage.
