I aint' been to german, and ignoring my heratidge (or maybe more because of it), I think the historical sights would be faccinating.
I would love to go there with someone like you who's well clued up.

They have an incredible stash of Ancient Egyptin art treasures there including a whole fucking temple that they pinched and rebuilt inside a museum. Mental.

Here, i've had an idea. My Ma' goes on these walks every friday. She pays like £250 a year, and so does the rest of the group, and she gets like 25 walks around historical bits of london and someone gives a talk. Or people can pay a bit more for a one-off.
I reckon you'd love a bit of that and would be dead good at it, a couple of groups of grannies a week and that would seriously supliment your income.
If I was a history/art student and had fuck all that i can to do with my degree, i'd do that.

Especially for your knowledge of the london music scene throughout the last half of the last century. Maybe a 'punk' version of it? Could even do it as a corporate thing maybe.

Plus there are other bits of the east end you can do, like a Krays Tour.

That's really actually a fucking great idea.

I'd give it a serious think about if I were you.

I would add a word of caution in that it could well be that it hasn't been done due to the distances envolved between the places of interest.
i.e. it a long way from Waterloo Bridge to Brook Street

Plus there are the tourist who'd lap it up, like the yanks who'd love a bit of LockStock.

You should get yourself over there... Its one of those places that you never think of as a destination but is absolutely superb
