1735 - The real South Bank Show

Surprisingly, the clouds, and then the rain
Not what I want from semi-tropical
London, but a brilliant day all the same
Overground train to Richmond, slight rainfall
Popped into Marks and Sparks, then past Town Hall
And a right, to the Thames Bridge and beyond
The rain increased; bookshop browsing a while
Then to the South Bank. Pearl texted a friend
Who works there... Free viewing before the end
Of the day at Hayward Gallery; name
On the door, Tracey Emin, visual
Aperitif, then food at Giraffe, and
Cheap seats for the Philharmonia, playing
Really well at the Royal Festival Hall
Sun 5 June
