Synchronized lateral footfall



Regular readers will know that I have something of a tendresse for bridges. These magnificent constructions make my spirit soar, dazzling me with their infinite variety and grace. As a special birthday treat, therefore, I got to walk across the Millennium Bridge from St Paul's to Bankside (yeah, I'm a cheap date). I can't explain why I've never done this, other than that it was shut all the time that I lived in London and my subsequent visits have been packed with social activities and shopping. I'm pleased to say that it didn't disappoint, even without the swaying for which it's famous.
