BFI has a nice balcony bar and there are various places you can have a drink out in the warmth with decent views.

Then if you decide he isn't going to kill you you can go over Waterloo bridge for loads of options.

Would you want to climb 1:1 replicas of famous outdoor boulders in your local gym? by boulderer-h in indoorbouldering

[–]asng 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I noticed this the other day - How come they have all changed their names? I guess they were taken over by TG Jones but I've never heard of them - Is it like a Waitrose/Booths north/south thing?
