Hopping Shopping

Covent Garden:

The Punch & Judy

Not a puppet show, but the boozer in Covent Garden, which is one of the most famous in London.

Beauty or beast?

I'm no architectural expert, to say the least! I either like something or I don't. And this building-Adelaide House, home to Berwin,Leighton, Paisner- on the north side of London Bridge, is a wonderful building, in my eyes.





On le Buses!

Whether that's faded, covered over by more 'art', or simply 'vandalised' by those who see it as vandalism, and an eyesore itself. Which goes back to the age old question: 'What is art?'. (Or in my case 'What is a photo?' )
