....end of 2007 .......a walk......the river..... some London

Image
Lost Bear outside M & S in Covent Garden. The police came in a throng and kicked it to see if it would explode........................duh! It didn't. ..........end of the day............. Covent Garden Market. ...sweeping away 2007 rubbish...........maybe! ....................................................................in need of rescue? earlier...............The Oxo tower, plane and boat. The Oxo Tower, boat, slinky sleek boat, and three crap Thames tubs heading for the end of year. Bridge and National Theatre. Running to the end.

The 4th Plinth, Trafalgar Square

Image
.......someone left a pretty dull architectural model on it.......................if it had been left on the London Underground the police would have blown it up .......( and shot the person carrying it ) so what's going on here ........who f***ed who to get it left where it is? Would someone in the Canadian Embassy please turn the spot light off.

London: 29th December 2007

...................'bout says it all.................dunnit?

Bombs and killing in Pakistan

shit.......why is it that we humans have this uncanny ability to allow the festered brains of psycho killers to have the power to influence so many people.................... but more tragically the mentally disturbed........ sending them off down the road to kill and then blow themselves up? Are these shadowy figures pleased with themselves that they have power over idiots.......is that their purpose.....is that the best that they can achieve? ....................so Bhutto was a flawed figure (not unlike most of us) , maybe corrupt and maybe overawed by her own vanity..........but she certainly did not deserve to be killed.....just elected and held accountable.................that I would have thought would have been a fate far worse than death.

London, Boxing Day....the other side of the river

The improbable journeys....fast feet! Very Grey +. Very Grey. Very Grey ++. Very Grey......nice shapes though!

Boxing Day London

Image
Charlie Chaplin and Charlie Chaplin. Leicester Square. Leicester Square. A cacophony of beasts to win......and you loose! Leicester Square. I Love you! Leicester Square. any way you can think about it.....................a crap ride. Leicester Square. Scary ride. Leicester Square. Tourist? Leicester Square. Tourists? Leicester Square. Tourist? Leicester Square. Flying Folk.

Christmas Day: 2007: Peckham

Nunhead comes up with the goods.

Image
Foggy, cold night in Nunhead. The complexities of getting the lights going. Peter and his incredible lights....well done mate. He reckons that next year he will do the entire roof. That should be mad. Come on the rest of Nunhead, stop being such lazy snobs (wot-evah) and get your Chrissie lights out and shining. .........down another street....some more Ho Ho Ho stuff.

The Rye looking special

Peckham Parakeet

One of the Peckham Parakeets sounded a little bit pee'd off with the fog.

Peckham : Sunday 23 December 2007

The day has been one shrouded in mist and fog............. spooky stuff..................time to look for William Blakes' Fairies or Angels in the trees on the Rye

Nunhead Christmas Lights

Image
Not too sure what's happening in Nunhead this year but there seems to be fewer of the spectacular light shows than in previous years. I will go an check it out again tonight..........perhaps they switch off and go to bed earlier?
