Oh okay - south of where I thought you were. Roughly where the long-demolished COLY used to be. I worked on Crosswall for many years (as did G1ngerevolutio of this parish), Aldgate High Street before that and Gresham Street for a while subsequently. Hardly recognise the area these days.

Some of it has changed a lot. The ship pub at the end of crutched friars has not changed a bit in years...

Nope. I used to go to the pub further down which may actually have been called The Crutched Friar.

Yes - a Nicholson pub which is still there. I go there every so often

That blood oxygen levels of 100% are not necessarily a good thing.

Indeed Wobbling, you'd have tipped over from finely-tuned athlete into victim of carbon monoxide poisoning.

I hope that didn't come up in your own medical :-o.

Dvorak - it came up during a bronchial challenge at the respiratory physiology clinic. It explains a few things.
