Day 4 - Tour Bus around London

We spent the morning at the flea markets - I found an album by Frank Zappa called 'Mothers (of Invention) - Filamore East'. I heard this as a teenager and it rocked wild - have thought about it many a time since then. It was Frank Zappa live, tearing up politics and sex in his 'take no prisoners' way - it felt radical in 1971 - can't wait to hear it back in Sydney on the record player!

After the markets we did the tourist thing and took an open bus tour of London for about 2.5 hours. The guide was amazingly articulate, witty and managed to be both funny and scholarly. Check out the pics.
