Forget the hype: London is a rubbish city! Rejoice in the junk and wonder at the waste on this winding trail of muck and trash.
On this 2 mile rummage over the Isle of Dogs and under the river to Greenwich we'll pass historic dumps and landfills and hear the stories of castaway communities. We'll ponder the sounds and smells of the city's waste, past and present, and marvel at its transformation.
All the guys really enjoyed the walking tour yesterday. Beautiful day, lovely place to walk and very interesting history of London.
