Long time, no post...

Wow. Nearly three months since I last posted here.

That may change.

I have a lot of photographs to show off...

Walking to the City.

Walking from Kings Cross through to the City, back in September.

South Tottenham

When I was at school, the tuck-shop - a student-run, wholly commercial operation - had currant buns from Grodzinski. They were unlike other currant buns (of which I remain fond).

I saw that Grodzinski (and Daughters) still exists. So I walked there, and took some photos on the way. They didn't have the same currant buns - though what they did have were very good.

Southbank

I spend a lot of time at the Southbank Centre - talking in the public space of the Royal Festival Hall, listening to jazz in the Queen Elizabeth Hall - or sitting in late summer sunshine on the garden they erected on the roof of the QEH, as I did in Spetember.

you guessed it - lots of photos... )

The City by Night

I wandered around the City one night. It sparkled.

Colour at the RFH

For the summer's celebration of the 1951 Festival of Britain, the Royal Festival Hall decorated its fifth floor.
