The shape of the City
The outline of the City of London at dusk. Unfortunately today was a Saturday so there weren't many lights on in the City offices

The Great River Race 2024.
This is an annual rowing boat race which takes place over a 21 mile course on the River Thames in London between the Isle of Dogs and Canary Wharf. Each boat must have a cox and at least one passenger
Day 2252, 22 August 2024
One of my favourite views in my local area. This is Limekiln Dock in Limehouse which is basically a small inlet from the River Thames. Here converted warehouses stand right next to the water's edge. I cannot say whether they flood regularly and whether they have excellent damp proofing!

The Woolwich Foot Tunnel, London
Today I bashed off the final three stages of the circular Capital Ring walk. The final stage takes you through the Woolwich Foot Tunnel under the River Thames and back to the start of the walk in Woolwich. I've walked under the Thames through the Greenwich Foot Tunnel on many occasions and the Woolwich one is very different. Whilst the Greenwich tunnel is well used and is quite buzzy with its excited pedestrians, runners and cyclists, the Woolwich tunnel is much longer, very quiet and damp making it feel quite eerie and almost sinister. I was quite relieved to emerge unscathed on the other side!
Day 2198, 29 June 2024
Blackfriars Station in London waiting for a train to Luton and a second attempt to catch my 27 hour delayed flight. Is there a station in the UK with a better view from the platform?
