I say 'present' but my mum was there and she was pregnant with me [emoji4]
She shared a birthday ( 29th Jan ) with Tommy Taylor and both parties were in the same celebration hall .. they sent a bottle of champagne across to my parent's table ..

London Bridge is a bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona. It was built in the 1830s and formerly spanned the River Thames in London, England. It was dismantled in 1967 and relocated to Arizona.

My educated guess would be it's the London Bridge which was sold to the yanks ??
That said .... it doesn't look 'that' impressive so it's prob not
