I agree it was appallingly underpublicised. I had known about it for some weeks, through the City jungle drum. But the organisers seemed very timid about it. The website could not even put up a decent programme beforehand.

I went along to see it, (possibly becausue cost centre #1 was marching ). Most of the crowd seemed very ignorant of what was going on - the charming American next to me said she thought it was "tribute concert to Prince Harry and Prince William" because that is what a policewoman had told her!

The fabulous backdrop of St Pauls could have done with a bigger spectacle, and as for 3 Typhoons - a banner headline of our reduced strength?
