When I was a kid, this dock in London's East End was full of ships from all corners of the earth....unloading exotic cargo. The ships have gone and have been replaced by yuppified apartments, an exhibition centre, a few restaurants and hotels.. The old dockside cranes are still there, erect yet impotent. Mayor of london Boris has put in a cable car ride from the dock to the o2 arena on the south of the River Thames. I like the loook of it and will be on it tomorrow evening. Meanwhile, here are a couple of shots of the Cable Car Terminus at the dock,
