“London, thou art the flower of cities all! Gemme of all joy, jasper of jocunditie”
-William Dunbar
I live three minutes away from the Thames via leisurely stroll (which technically forfeits my right to complain about anything ever). Not only is the pretty great in and of itself, but the Thames is a fascinatingly historic river in a fascinatingly historic city. Come wandering with me this week as I show you a bit of the fantastic history within twenty minutes of my flat.
Today, a late night amble with few words to get in the way.
St Paul’s after dark.
Blackfriars Bridge puts on a light show.
The view out of the front door of Jeff’s office. We hate him, yes?
Tower Bridge lit up for your pleasure.
I used to live 5min from the Thames (my home is still there but I am not!) and your post really made me miss it!
If ever I have to leave, I know I’ll feel the same…
