So it’s the last day at work for Keryn and I before we head off on our travelling. Very strange. Nearly time to say goodbye London.
Leaving drinks
Last night we had drinks to mark the leaving of our jobs. We had been recommended a bar in Farringdon called The Fence and it was a very good night, thankfully the weather was nice so we spent a lot of time outside. Lots of photos in the gallery, here are a couple. With Roger […]
Olympics
The Landsecurities social committee had an Olympics event last week at a bar near the Strand offices. Other than free drink and food there was also a number of sporting events played out on the Wii, naturally using the Olympics game. Great fun was had with most people trying their hardest, as you can see. […]
Step 1001 move out
On Saturday morning around 9:30am three men turned up in a Pickfords truck. Over the next six and a bit hours they proceeded to pack all of our things into boxes, wrapping everything up and stacking it in the back of the truck. At 3:00pm a couple of cleaners arrived as well and shortly after […]
BBQ and Battersea
The Railway Bell Yesterday we went out to Hampton for a farewell BBQ at the Old Railway Bell pub. Trish, Nigel and Ryan are moving out west to Andover and this was their time to say goodbye. We had a good afternoon in the sun (punctuated with a short period of heavy rain) chatting over […]
New Years and day one, 2008
Bridget, Keryn and I had a quiet New Years at home watching the terrible coverage of the London New Years fireworks. Patricia and Sam braved the crowds and weather to be in London for the show, and even managed to escape London in reasonable time. Earlier in the day we had all gone in to […]
Because Catherine says so
It’s been quiet here on the Blogging front, possibly a combination of being busy, the onset of winter and the family visits recently. Lets go back through the last few weeks then shall we? This week I was at Leeds on Sunday night so I could be at the LS City Walk Office first thing […]
The Lord Mayor’s Show
Thursday night after work I went down to the Speight’s Ale House after work for a pint or two and Danny, a King Country lad who also works on the Helpdesk came along. We were later joined by Keryn and chatted our way through a few pints of Speight’s followed by a bottle of Oyster […]
The roundup
It’s been a busy week just gone. On Tuesday night I went to the Roundhouse in Camden and watched KT Tunstall in Concert. I bought my ticket months ago and Keryn had decided at the time she didn’t want to go so it was just me, my camera and all the other people. It was […]
Photos updates
A lot of photos have been added to the Gallery recently, click on the photos below for more. In other news somewhere between taking photos in Richmond and getting home that evening I lost my new tripod – left it on the train no less. I’m definitely getting value out of our insurance at the […]
The good and the bad
Today I spent a lot of time following the Ship Lida which has carried a Speight’s Ale House across the oceans from New Zealand to London. In the morning I watched as the ship passed through Tower Bridge and then passed back again half an hour later. There were a few photographers around and a […]
ES & EOS Update
Found an article about my day with the Evening Standard, you can see it on the “This Is London” website by clicking here. Nice to see another quote that I never said, at least it’s more promotion. Taking photos for the Evening Standard. In other news my photo is in the latest issue of EOS […]
