Alright, So It’s Juvenile, But It Made Me Laugh

I spend a lot of time on the train being ferried in and out of London. Part of my journey, just outside Waterloo and a hop, skip and a jump from the Houses of Parliament, passes by a beautiful red brick building which is the home of the Marine Society and the Sea Cadets.
