Latest sighting on the Thames

2006-08-03T02:13:00.000+14:00

EUREKA – Spotted by James (July) This visit to the embankment delivered, what they came for – this rare sighting of the Angel of Promise. It was 3.30 pm. Weather was slightly overcast. The ferry was the bright yellow one that hails from Greenwich pier. After a packed day down at the Cutty Sark and Maritime Museum, browsing through the stalls at Greenwich market they stepped on to the ferry, bought a coffee and little did they know they would actually witness what could be the Angel of promise
