When exploring London, you will come across lots of excitement by chance, so try to take everything in rather than just rushing around to all of the major tourist haunts.

One thing is certain in business. You and everyone around you will make mistakes.

I love Notting Hill and Westbourne Grove - there is so much life and vitality around Portobello and Ladbroke Grove. It has come up a lot since I started Virgin more than 40 years ago, but there is so much character.

Can you imagine what a different world we will live in when businesses do what's right for the communities and the environment in everything they do?

People from all over the world come to London wanting to make their own mark on it, and they add to the energy and vitality of the capital. It's got a bit busier since the '60s, but the more the merrier!

If you're embarking around the world in a hot-air balloon, don't forget the toilet paper.
