Steve, Thank you for your informative posting, which I hope has not caused too much domestic aggro!
I fully understand the logistics of organising such events as my life is a rolling event: 3 children under 8 years of age and a wife with a full business life who is constantly away. Just attending something I want to do is often a problem as sometime children are not welcome; if they are not, neither am I. I joined PDML post September 11th, the world will never be the same, and it is of course understandable that just jumping on a plane can ever be viewed the same way. I started my working life in the city and many people frequently had business trips to New York - the horrific events leave me saddened profoundly. Well to lighten the subject up (give it a go) I can say that your zoo idea is nice, for both chatting/children and photography. My boys, had a joint birthday party at Colchester Zoo and we invited a few friends with their children, it was a belter of a day out, everyone had a great time and there were many opportunities to take non-zoo related photos. However, yes, going around the London Eye, a wander around London (by bus - the upstairs of a Routemaster takes a beating for views), yes, PDML sweatshirts/banners!! Anyone else with views?
