@thameswater People just want to understand and not feel lied to. @HarryLow49

@thameswater Apologising with vague information and unlabelled photos on the website just leaves everyone frustrated. I understand that there are in fact two burst pipes, and this is why “the” pipe repair isn’t fixing the problem yet—the other one isn’t done. Why not just tell everyone?

@MarshsLibrary An intimidating cabbage, even.

@LeahWW @CarolineMcCaff @LondonMudlark @tedsandling However anyone can go on the foreshore in the permitted areas and just look—the rule is don't disturb (pick up, dig, take, etc.)—so you could just go walking around and looking, and take pictures of interesting things as a way of collecting.

@LeahWW @CarolineMcCaff @LondonMudlark @tedsandling They stopped issuing new licenses I'm afraid. You used to get them from the Port of London Authority and they would last 3 years though, so also expensive if you want to just do one or two trips; there was no one-off day option.

This was so fun to have in the studio as the paint came away and new carvings were revealed.
