In London for probably what is the largest gathering of IP professionals in our yearly calendar, allegedly more than 10,000 of us, reminding me why I both love and hate London all in the same breath. I'd say the balance still tips towards the hate end of the scale though, as the noise, the constant business, and not terribly reliable transport system do not put it in a favorable light. The main event is out on the eastern desert, I mean, revamped quarter of the old Thames docklands, of the ExCel building, which would be fine if public transport was working - which it wasn't over the weekend. Something to be said to the conference organisers there. Receptions and drinks dos are planned for the next 3 days along the river, or at various places dotted around central London, some of which require a Masters in calendar scheduling to sort out. Meanwhile, we were out with some Canadian lawyer friends on Saturday night and on the way back, snapped this shot of Tower Bridge lit up at night.
