London Day Trip on Queens 90th Birthday Celebration 11th June 2016
We had a day out in London today 11th June 2016, a friend of ours very kindly took myself and my wife up to London on the Queens 90th Birthday Celebrations.
Went to see part of Olympic Park Stadium in Stratford, where West Ham Football Club will be playing their games from next season as the club will be making it their permanent ground now.
Next we went to go onto travel on the Emirates Cable Car which crosses the Thames to the 02 Arena then a boat trip on the Thames Clipper to along the Thames to Embankment where we got off and along the way we saw views of Cutty Sark, part of Greenwich and entrance to the tunnel which runs under the Thames to Greenwich with buildings in view as we pass Greenwich Pier and the Gloriana Golden Barge which was used in the Queen's Golden Jubilee Pageant. Saw on the right handside views of the Walkie Talkie office building, St Pauls Cathedral on the right saw views of Tower Bridge, Traitors Gate and HMS Belfast.
When we got off the Thames Clipper at Embankment we saw horses pulling old carriages one being a Mail Coach and the other being a Horse Drawn Bus which was quite nice and different to see, plus there was a couple of old routemaster buses one bus I recognised as USK 625. Then saw a couple of bagpipers playing further down the road came across a pink routemaster bus quite a novelty. All in all a very good day despite some heavy rain.

From there, to heat up I stopped into a pub called The Old Shades. After that, I walked over the London Eye!

Don't let VIP intimidate you, however, I will put up a video about how you can get the Royal treatment yourself in just a few days! From there it was time for dinner and I stopped into The Black Friar pub to grab a meat pie and a cider (how English, yes?). Stay tuned for Day 2 & 3!

Transcript
Hi, good afternoon Gann. Tower Bridge Radio.Yeah, just calling to let you know we’re standing by for your 15:15 bridge lift.
Checking up shortly.
All understood, we’ll stand by for your departure. Over.
It was back in 1997. I was doing a bridge lift at about 10 o’clock at night, and all of a sudden we saw blue flashing lights all over the place and it turned out to be Bill Clinton, stuck at the gates in his limousine. And well, within a few minutes of him stopping the phone went. We had Scotland Yard on the phone saying “Put the bridge down.” You know, the president is stuck at the gates and unfortunately I had to tell them I can’t do that because I had a boat coming under the bridge and I can’t jeopardise a vessel.
South-East all clear, thank you.
When the bridge was built it was in the middle of the busiest docks in the world and the act of parliament that was passed at the time did decree that shipping have right of way over road traffic and that still stands to this day.
I would like to think I’m a bit of a problem solver. If I’ve got a fridge or a freezer that packs up working, or central heating, I’ll always have a bash at that before calling out the experts shall we say. If we’ve got any issues on the bridge where we need to get a situation sorted out, you know, I’ll stick at it until I can solve the problems.
A lot of people don’t realise it still opens and funnily enough the ones that don’t are probably you know, quite a lot of Londoners.
Waterloo all clear, roger
Well the bridge is going to be opening in, is scheduled to open at 3.15 so that’s 15 minutes time.
Tango two, tango two. Mike four. Thanks for calling me Jim.
I’m just in the process of starting our pumps up here. As soon as they’ve started I’ll proceed with the life for you over.
So we’ve got eight pumps to start and they all start in sequence so they don’t overload the system. And when we’re happy the boats ready to come through we’ll stop the road traffic.
Stand by bridge staff, about to stop road traffic.
Clear the centre of bridge, the bridge is about to open. Clear the bridge please.
Then we get to the point where we can pull the lever which turns the gears of course and opens the bridge.
Obviously working on one of the most unique sights, icons in the world, erm it’s recognisable all over the place, Tower Bridge and I feel honoured.
And there she goes.
It’s a unique job and I don’t think there’s any other job quite like it to be honest yeah.
