Righty ho, so we had one "on topic" location today and two "insets". Lets start at the top, shall we? Whilst I'm sure the trustees would be honoured that you think this is a London location, it isn't. So have a peep at this version: Inset 1: (click for a larger version) Whilst I'm sure the trustees would be honoured that you think this is a London location, it isn't. The local council decided that following the relatively recent round of public sector cuts they would close the venue despite it being a bid for "Challenge Anneka" back in the day and a venue that the local community greatly appreciated.

Inset 2 is nearby at least. Let's try Thames at Silvertown, as seen from the other side at Woolwich at sunset

For those interested in social enterprise I would encourage you to click on Bramley Baths .com or follow them here. So, having indulged my left-wing rant, what do you all think of the main and remaining inset?
