Bugs in the Clematis


I took these shots earlier this year of some black fly in my clematis (not happy about that) but then I noticed tome ants helping themselves to the bugs helping me get rid of them

This through the doors when we stopped at Marble Arch underground station. There are a lot of great ones like this there.

Sky at the Bridge



This was my last port of call after visting five churches on day, the last church was over the other side of this bridge which crosses the GWR at Lower Basildon, the sky looked perfect


Looking down the railway one direction. 

and the other towards the Goring Gap 
I'll go into what the pylons are for in another blog.

The Mottisfont lawn


The weather is getting cold here in the UK so for this weeks Our World Tuesday I thought I would show some sunny shots from Mottisfont to cheer us all up.

Underground Murals


Here are some of the murals from  the London Underground which I too on my last visit to the city. This is what you see when you get to Holborn which is the nearest underground station
Going down the escalators you see pillars



and when you get in the station so you know your at the right one

Small Caravan





Museum Visit


Thought I'd show a few photos I took on my way to the British Museum when my wife & I visited a few weeks ago

 Holbourn Town Hall

 A blue plaque always makes me look





Bertrand Russell who I had heard of but never knew much more about him










 A place I had heard about and laid empty for a long time

Made me smile seeing this place in the middle of London. Selling Scottish gifts to unsuspecting Tourists at no doubt a lot more than they would cost in Scotland





Not sure if they are still Boris Bikes now with the sponsor on them now 





Loved the name of this place
 And the clock

The yard looked interesting now




miniature guitars in a shop 





Countdown clock on a Crossing




The tube station
 and the station itself.
