There are only a handful of boroughs left to visit. At this stage it's almost like throwing a dice (which is, incidentally, how this whole thing began). Will it be out to the west, to inner Camden, densely-packed Hammersmith & Fulham or suburban Barnet? Or is it finally time to head to the far east, which my jamjar has been unbelievably reluctant to do over the last six years, to see the supposed delights of this side of town? Will I get to spend the day somewhere hip, happening and action-packed? Or will I be boring you next week with tales of attraction-lite outskirts where nothing happens? In midwinter London, these distinctions matter.
Once I've researched my randomly-chosen borough online I'll then head off and visit some of its most interesting places (assuming it has any). As usual I hope to visit somewhere famous, somewhere historic, somewhere pretty, somewhere retail, somewhere sporty and somewhere random. I might even take lots of photographs while I'm at it, if the borough's photogenic enough. Then after I've made my grand tour I'll come back tomorrow and tell you all about it. Let's see where I'm going this time...
Random borough (28): Time yet again for me to take another random trip to one of London's 33 boroughs. As I write I have no idea which one of the six remaining borough names will be revealed when I unfold the slip of paper I'm about to pick from my legendary "special jamjar". I just know it won't be Merton, Islington, Enfield, Sutton, Lewisham, Southwark, Kensington & Chelsea, Hackney, Hillingdon, the City, Bromley, Lambeth, Tower Hamlets, Haringey, Hounslow, Brent, Redbridge, Ealing, Harrow, Croydon, Waltham Forest, Wandsworth, Greenwich, Richmond, Kingston, Westminster or Newham because they're the twenty-seven (dark grey) boroughs I've picked out already.
