best overheard conversation last night in london eye pod between two American ladies who were looking at one of those skyline guide things, trying to identify everything.
Woman #1: Where's Tower Bridge?
Woman #2: Ah don't know
Woman #1: Well Ah thought it would be really obvious. It's like bright blue isn't it?
Woman #2: Ah think so.
Woman #1: So where'd it go? That's Bucking-ham palace, that's Waterloo... Ah don't see Tower Bridge nowhere.
Woman #2: Well maybe they tore it down. They done tore London Bridge down, y'know.
I was snickering in the corner throughout this exchange then kindly informed them it was actually round the bend in the river; we were now too low down to see it as it was blocked by buildings along the south bank.
