Walking is my my favourite way of getting around this city. Its the best way to explore. To have a look up here and a glimpse down there. And you can stop off in one of London’s 7,000 pubs to break the journey with a clear conscience.
Something catches my eye as I wander around and I take a photo. Or I discover something I didn’t previously know. This blog is where I post the pictures and write down the things that I find interesting. Its a form of scrap book really.
Hopefully you will find something of interest. It might even lead to you going to have a look for yourself. That would be great. But don’t forget the pubs. They need your trade.
