My great grandfather, who was a costermonger, used to bring my father to the City and show him all of the buildings. He used to stop outside of the Stock Exchange and say: ” There is madness in there!” I lost count of the times I was told these stories but similarly, I find the City on my walking routes too. Unless the weather is really bad, I walk from Paddington station to wherever I am going and always via places of interest to me. On my last visit, I clocked up 13 miles. I am very much looking forward to joining this tour too.
