' I've never witnessed the Changing of the Guard. I've never been to the Tower. I've never drunk beer at dawn with Covent Garden porters or seen a pearly king. I have never been to Downing Street and when I went up the Post Office Tower you couldn't see a yard because of the fog. I've never eaten whelks and I don't intend to.'
