Hello from London!

So I was taking a pic against a pillar (of Saint Dave as it happens...) and leaned on my Apple Watch which caused it to go into SOS mode and let off a small siren...

Then a service started and when I tried to take another pic, a security guy told me I wasn’t allowed to take pictures during service which is a shame because I’d just found a silver mosaic Jesus standing on a snake with a very startled expression (that’s Jesus’ expression... not the snake’s...)

Wow. Can’t do anything these days.
 
Lies. London’s tiny. When you compare it with rest of UK. Although, have been told that you can make it a fair distance up the country (there is life outside the M25) in the same amount of time as it takes to get across the City.

Years back, probably in of the first Sunday Times colour supplements, i read that the whole population of the world would fit on a piece of land the size of the Isle of Wight but it would be like a crowded cocktail party. Now it would probably be on land the size of Wales. . It would probably havevto be byo. .
 
Anyone else fed up of Brexit yet? I didn’t even get a cute Brexit dog today...
 
I’m trying to research a post to make on FB. It’s a divisive issue that has left bitter taste in my mouth.

Two years and not a clue.
 
Wish you were here? :kiss:

Great pic, Allia.

Storm Gaz is on the way out. About bloody time. I’m itching to get out in the allotment, I blame these new pants.
 
Looks like a great vantage point. Which strangely has be remembering another London building that was also quite unusual. For some reason I think it was nicknamed the ark because of its shape...

The Ark at Hammersmith. I had a temp postroom job there once. I picked up a couple of round robin envelopes and walked round the building for a week. I went throughout the building, never once challenged by anyone, and got paid for it, I even had the cheek to put in for overtime. Happy days!

Ah that is the one! Are round robin envelopes like interoffice memo envelopes? And not challenged? Guess you would make a good spy...lol.

Inter office envelopes! That's it, I called them round robin because I couldn't remember exactly what they were called - let's face it, I only had about 3 of them and I never let go! Seagrams whisky had the whole of one floor, I spent a couple of days waling round trying to find the key to the hospitality room , I didn't find it
 
The trellises need a few years to establish themselves but this is a very glorious spot for your lunch time sarnies... :cattail::kiss:


I expected it to be busier...

You mean Pol’s not a spy?!

I am not a spy. I am tourist I have come to london to see the trellisses which are wonderful examples of collaboration between Alan's titsmash and Mr D on his allotment. I am also looking for the hotel of miss Allia' Potatoes which looks inviting. Please direct me with room number. I have come with my shirt iron as a gift.
 
Errrr... I know it’s a joke but I do have quite good security at my hotel... so good one of the security guys nearly came to fisticuffs with one of my deliveroo men. I had to intervene to claim my dinner...
