[ This weekend in SE1 ]

If your plans for a weekend away from London have been
disrupted by the foot-and-mouth crisis, there's plenty
going on in SE1.

Why not visit the Museum of the River Thames, the final
installment of the Museum Of series at Oxo Tower Wharf?
See http://www.themuseumof.org for details.

And the new visitors' centre and exhibition at
Southwark Cathedral is well worth a visit. See

for details. And check out the *March* issue of "in
SE1" for details of a special offer valid until

On Sunday a free exhibition opens in the foyer of the
Royal Festival Hall, celebrating the 50th birthday of
the world-famous concert and arts venue.
