London's lovely lights

So much of London loveliness (when the sun shines). Original hipsters at the London Transport Musuem, locks and lazy teens, Medieval graffiti from Tower of London's tortured, progress for the Olympics and innovative street performers, dappled night and fairy lights, old guildhalls and the long trek home. A city full of contrasts.

Something like this I've never seen before. This man's glass work literally took my breath away. Tentacles and petals, folded sand and ocean waves, scenes of underwater dreams. If you are in London, go to Halycon Gallery. Immediately.

What the what?

It's a fire-breathing tuba. Outside my train station. No frikkin way.

Instagram London

Gravel tracks, abandoned umbrellas and distant commuters. Puddles, rain and ravens. Brick lanes, street art and tea parlours.  Just your average day in London.
