The City: banking on better weather (38)
The City: banking on better weather (38)
My grandfather, himself a countryman, used to tell the story of his father's visit to London. He waited for the traffic to pass before crossing the road- spoiler alert: it never did. Similarly, in my 44 years visiting the City of London, if I waited until there were no workmen in shot my collection would be much, much smaller- as here at the junction of Bow Lane and Watling Street
From Marty P to Baby Bear

On August the Fifth 2023 we came for a City Walk which was Wet Wet Wet™. In between then and now we have had an early September Swelterthon. Today, however, was like Baby Bear's Porridge - just right. From Bank we walked along to the Guildhall, down to Dick Whittington's old manor, through to the Walkie-Talkie, up to its northern border and then down to the bottom of Moorgate.
