It took me weeks and weeks to find it in Gough Square. I found myself one evening after work roaming the back streets and alleys off Fleet Street as Dr Johnson famously recommended those who really wanted to know London and almost fell upon it; it was a glorious moment of discovery for me; of course it is opposite Dr Johnson's old house; now a museum; I was alone in the empty dark square and shouted out I have found it!
