Tower Guide
I was tempted to place this with Craig as humour, and then in Miscellaneous, but finally decided that it contains just too much good history to tuck it away.
Enjoy.

Brilliant way to start a monday morning before setting off to work.
I too have had a tour round the Tower of London, I had a different yeoman warder as a guide but he too was very funny and hugely entertaining. It seems as though whoever instructs the Yeomans in terms of delivery and content has got it spot on. A hugely enjoyable and memorable tour and worth every penny of the nearly £20 to get in.

Very entertaining - the ones I had were so factual and bland.
