London's Millennium Dome - a mega-financial blunder. An ill-conceived altar to Cool Britannia. All mouth and no trousers. Great looking and impressive from the outside, but a clueless void on the inside, lacking substance.
A moment of light in its darkness after the Millennium was when that cheeky Liverpudlian troubadour McCartney sneaked in and tested the acoustics with a private jam session of old Beatles classics. It was quite surreal as the songs wafted across the Thames to our flat in Canary Wharf. Sadly it's probably the closest I will ever be to McCartney, (except maybe sneakily at Knebworth!)

That was jammy for the politicians who'd staked their (good) reputations on it! Good reputations...politicians... contradictions in terms.
