London Adventure

pbehn · Oct 18, 2016

When I worked in London I used to go to see the "sights", one morning after visiting Westminster Abbey the previous afternoon I told my co workers what I had done and three of them asked "why"? People living in London have very little appreciation of what they are surrounded by.

Not the first time the Dutch have invaded!

Where on earth did you stay, Pentonville prison ?

Cheers

Something like that

Actually it was a cheap B&B close to Hyde park. The bars you see were part of the balcony.

Karl,

Has anyone told you that in the dim light of the museum you look like John Cougar Mellencamp?

rochie · Oct 19, 2016

Marcel caught me off guard is all i can say, damn paparazzi

Marcel · Oct 19, 2016

Yeah, he looks much better in real life.

I think Karl was just annoyed with the big lens pointed at him

Great storyline with those photos, Marcel!

And it looks like Karl was putting on his "bah humbug!" face just in time for the Holidays!

Hopefully there'll be more photos!

Marcel · Oct 19, 2016

Thanks Dave. Still have to develop them. That's the disadvantage of shooting RAW. And of course have to find a new story with it

GrauGeist · Oct 19, 2016

I shoot RAW (PEF) as well...that's why it took a little while to share my shots I took of Europe a few years ago. The iPad did alow me some "on the spot" photos to post along the way, though!

Looking forward to the next series!

Good shots Marcel!

I have visited London several times and loved every time. Once whilst driving there we came upon one of those tiny roundabouts that are more a wide spot than a true circle. I got confused as to which direction to turn and drove straight over it. My wife who is English commented that generally they drive round them not over them. Thankfully there was no other traffic in the area. Sigh...

Great presentation Marcel and a beautiful look at London. That white ship you photographed is an anti-submarine sloop, HMS Wellington; served in the New Zealand station before the war.

Wrong side of the road? Just to confuse things, the right side of the road is the wrong side of the road and the left side of the road is the right side of the road...

When in doubt, keep the passenger door towards the curb! (unless you're driving a mail truck - then you're on your own!)

Airframes · Nov 2, 2016

Ah, but in the area I live, in an effort to accommodate overseas visitors, we drive on the left side of the road on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and on the opposite side on the other days, except Sunday, when it's 'Take a Chance Day'.
I haven't had an accident yet .................. probably caused a few, but ..........................

GrauGeist · Nov 2, 2016

Terry, are you sure you don't mean they drive on alternate sides of the road after the pubs close?

Airframes · Nov 3, 2016

Nah - that's when they follow the center line !
