Tales from the Riverbank

Linkblogging yesterday with my brother in tow:

Borough Market: http://www.boroughmarket.org.uk/
Vinopolis: http://www.vinopolis.co.uk/
Shakepeare's Globe: http://www.shakespeares-globe.org/
Tate Moden: http://www.tate.org.uk/modern/
Southbank Centre: http://www.southbankcentre.co.uk/
Chinatown: http://www.chinatownlondon.org/

It turns out that you can drink at all these locations as well as all the pubs that lie between them.
