Swiftie foot gear |
On a walk in Pimlico or possibly nearby Belgravia |
Interesting shops |

En route to Spitalfields market, near the financial bit of town: a glimpse of the Gherkin, as Londoner call it |
Just outside Spitalfields...is this a family restaurant? |
Spitalfields, in our estimation, is somewhere between Camden Market and Borough Market...little brocante but lots of interesting food, bespoke fashion and accessories |
Entertainment at the Covent Garden market |
No lack of interesting brocante, collectibles in these precincts |
In London's miniscule West End Chinatown |

Blackfriars, a famous station on the tube |
Up in smoke near the Inns of Court |

"Bomber" Harris, Bomber Command...WWII will be remembered someday as the war that ended equestrian monuments |
Sometimes the blue plaques go a bit too far... |
Nevermind the cars, trucks, buses... |
