I'm thinking of the one in Waterloo. Handy for trains, the Tube and buses.
It's at the end of Stamford Street, where I spent a lot of my school hols with the G'rents.

It's been built in a pedestrian underpass that used to be a Cardboard City at night. A shameful seedy place where homeless people dossed down and hoped to be reasonably undisturbed.

During the day it was a necessary pedestrian walkthrough - planning meant you had to walk quite a way to cross the road otherwise. There were few people there during the day, but Grandad told us we could never give them money, because they would spend it on things that were bad for them. But that we should look them in the eye and shake out heads, raher than ignore them, because many of them had fought in the War (WWII) and couldn't help themselves.

On the flip side they G'rents always had a few coins for buskers or pavement artists. They pitied those who could not help themselves, but supported anyone working for a living.

Soz - back to Imax!
I'm game of you are.
Has to be after August though. I'm saving for Whitby before that.
