Humber or Thames? Which is best? Only one way to find out!

FIGHT =))
(as Harry Hill would say) ....
Seriously how may other MDs would love an excursion to the capital to have a session on the Thames foreshore ... I know I would!!
Have you ever been? What was your experience?
Luckily I get get to work in the capital now and again so I am looking forward to giving it a go. I think you can get daily permits or can "eyes only" for free.

I would concentrate on the Humber and the Yorkshire coast, The Thames in the city of London had been hammered to death by the early 90's. The Humber has never really been explored enough to show it's full potential. The hard part is finding areas not covered in a thick layer of mud, or not eroded so much all you find is Fossils.
