Thanks for another wonderful photo tour of London sights, Richard.

I'm glad you like the photos Sci. The area has been transformed. The works in front of Kings Cross continue.

Here are the latest photos from the Safeway construction site. The steelwork you see was put up in less than a day.

This is fascinating. I didn't realise people were moving whole house this early in our modern world.

That was a very interesting read. It is amazing they had the know how to do this way back when!

I love this, sometimes it feels like I've been dreaming I live in Regina 'cause I get to see so many neat parts as the city lives, breathes and slowly grows up.

I'm just watching a BBC4 programme about the research and mapping of Pavlopetri. A 3,000 year old city submerged off the Greek coast.

A team of archaeologists from Sydney were part of the team.

The digital survey and reconstruction of the buildings is remarkable.

This clip gives you a great sampler.

OK. Back to the programme.
