Big New Thing on the Thames this summer
Check this article in The Times:

http://travel.timesonline.co.uk/arti...207205,00.html

"A company called London RIB Voyages has begun offering the fastest tourist boat trips the capital’s main waterway has ever seen.

Starting at the London Eye and travelling as far as the Thames Barrier"

Ira, we would all prefer to have Jeremy Irons ROWING us up and down the Thames so we'd have time to fully take in what we're seeing but....LOL
