Alphabet of Greenwich – G

Thought I’d take a bit of a break from the Olympics today, though of course ‘Games’ should be in there somewhere.
Theoretically ‘G’ should be the easiest – so nothing beginning with ‘Greenwich…’ eh.
Still should be plenty of Greenwichy Gs though (Gee-gees?)
So, some Gs please…

Well, it’s got to be Goddard’s for me…
Surely ‘G’ in the Greenwich Alphabet should be like row 13 on an airplane?
