Hello All!
I've been to London many times, but never to Greenwich. I'd like to go, but I have a tight schedule. I have to be at St. Paul's Cathedral every day at 1:45pm. If I get to Greenwich at 10:00am, is it even worth it, or will it be too rushed? Push it off to another London visit? Thanks!!

I would ask what you wanted to see at Greenwich? There are several interesting options that can easily fill most of a day, but if your goal is just one of those sites it would be very doable.

I think it's worth it. It is about 40 minutes to St Paul's on the DLR (Docklands Light Railway)- so you could leave at 12.30/12,45 and still be at St Paul's on time. Personally I would just take the train to Bank -the end of the DLR and walk it from there.
It sounds as if you are in one of the summertime US Choirs in Residence for Evensong- a feature of the St Paul's year while their own choir is on holiday.
One Good Friday I was forced to work at Poplar DLR station on standby during a crane climbdown, so being paid to just sit there in case of a problem. And I was to and fro St Paul's 4 times that day, having to route the long way round via Stratford due to a line closure, a rather surreal day.
