Herman Melville

One of the many joys of living in London (in my opinion) are spotting what I call the "blue dots" and in this case we randomly spotted where Herman Melville the (American) author of Moby Dick once lived in 1849.
I found the timing of spotting this blue dot kind of funny because when I was in Brighton getting Mike some coffee in Starbucks this guy asked me if I was from the States. I said, yes and he said what part, I said Tennessee (in the south) and his next reply was I want to visit there one day and then he randomly said "I'm reading Moby Dick", my reply was that's Great and then I headed for the door.

Cheers,
WMMc
