Wandering through to the top of the Royal Observatory, Greenwich we chanced upon this marker/sculpture/whatchamacallit which was sitting on top of the Meridian line (Longtitude 0, degre 0' 0") , so of course we wanted to take a photo with it.
There was, however, the slight issue of a queue that was 30-40 people long - which would have meant a wait of about 1 hour ?
So we decided to skip that and started looking around and that was when we noticed a potential landmark which wasn't drawing any attention whatsoever from the crowd. We walked right up and started snapping photos in varied poses, concentrating on the steel stripe which signified the Meridian line and the clock above the door which showed the 2 different days that the line separated.
We spent about 3-4 minutes trying to get the angles right to fit everything in - it required a lot of bending - and when we were finally satisfied that we had gotten the photos that we wanted, there was a queue of 20-30 people behind us.
