tower bridge at five thirty in the morning with the mayors office and the gherkin Posted by Hello

tower bridge

i never normally get an opportunity to stop and photograph this scene when i'm on my way out to essex, so i nipped back to tower bridge after i'd dropped her at waterloo in the early quiet of saturday morning.

i haven't done the scene justice this time as it needs a bit of sun, but you have to catch these sorts of skylines before someone builds in the space in front

on her holidays ...

the loved one has gone away for a week to practise yoga for five hours a day in the south of france

she's very organized and this is ALL of her luggage

may in kent

i drove along a bit of the Pilgrims Way & over the North Downs on the way to Canterbury, thinking of Chaucer and of of the lovely subtle & witty Powell & Pressburger film, A CANTERBURY TALE

everything looks green & lovely but it was so cold !

found a funny tree with a hole in the trunk, more like two trunks around a hole

and some lovely old plasterwork on a timbered building in newnham
