One of our fave meals at Dishooms, a breakfast. Manager Rama and I had a very friendly chat about business and post-covid tourism. Outdoor décor included lovely Persian tiles. The bookshelf there also had an old Lonely Planet title. That was photographer Richard l'Anson's great picture book about his times in India.

Reflections from the downtown Insurance Companies high-rises, plus this first one from 'Citizen M' hotel. The last one is from Westminster abbey's neighbour church.

The East End took the brunt of Luftwaffe bombing during the Blitz. The waterfront was just below on the map. I've also read that Nazi crews dumped their remaining payloads there for logistical reasons. Conditions in the underground Tube stations (inc. Liverpool, Aldgate and nearby) were terrible for the many citizens who'd been directed there by officials. Sleeping comfort was non-existent and there were only a few buckets to serve as toilets for those sizable crowds. The government hid that.

The French restaurant 'La Cage Imaginaire' on Flask way. The food, the wine and the service were all excellent. This was Mrs Z's wise selection, a great choice.

This adult gal seemed to be celebrating a graduation. Daddy took many photos of her there by those Somerset House fountains. He was trying hard to look casual, all blue jeans and casual wear, but his bodyguards (plural) who oversaw the scene spoke of great wealth.

London has any number of famed recording studios where classic albums were once made. Seen above, an old-school Schure mic. Back in '87, I went to Abbey Road for my newspaper article. A group of young German fans there took my portrait by the studio door and in return, I promised to send them a few copies of my private audience bootlegs. Unfortunately, when the developed foto arrived in Toronto--they'd neglected to include a return address! Oh no...

This couple were at the pseudo-Swiss chalet that is Duck Island Cottage at St. James park. The building was constructed in 1841 to house the Royal Birdkeeper. Settle down DCD!

During our visit, a clearly stoned woman walked around lugging a large computer monitor. Pretty sure that she'd ripped it off from somewhere. As we passed underneath here in the tube station, she attempted to spit on us from above, but instead of hitting us, her gob instead struck a young black man. "And I never even did nothink to her!!" he protested. Neither had we. This fellow above witnessed the incident but had nothink to say.

Brixton's Electric Avenue was so-named because it was one of the country's first electrically-lit streets. Nowadays there are numerous outdoors produce vendors.

Brixton is a very hip place. Many Jamaican people settled there in '48 and it remains home to many Brits of color.
