Tales of Home [1]

I was bored

Might actually get out of the office today and take some pictures of where I work. It looks nice when the weather is good. Was also hoping to pop onboard a canadian destroyer that was moored up but that left yesterday!

First time I have done this from my phone so might go wrong!

Thats about as nice as Ive ever seen London look! Nice pics Lance.

But I dont think I could live somewhere that, flat.

nice!

Last one was from my window in work this morning hence the bad quality. I live about 40 m8les from there. On train home now!

do you know how to use commas or

Yup for humourous pauses and effect CC.

Great pics, Lance! I still really want to visit London (and other parts of the UK of course).

Thats a hell of a view to have from your office window Lance!
How long is your daily commute?

Who washes all those windows?

About 1:15 each way. Can see all over london from my floor... olympic site, across the city (tower bridge etc) and south over greenwich.

Dont know who washes the windows.

An hour commute sucks- I used to have to communte to an outlying job years ago- that was about an hour and twenty in a bumpy old van going through country lanes at unsafe speeds- I used to try to sleep through it.

I don't think the speeds were the only unsafe thing if you were sleeping at the time.

No I wasnt driving- even for me that would be stupid!
They used to pick all the staff from town up in one van then head out up country to the workplace.

The train sucks every day. Get one day a week working at home which helps. 2.5-3 hours a day travelling is such a huge waste of life!!

great views of London, Lance. Good place to visit, so rich in history, but Im so glad I dont live there !

Do think I would mind living there too much.... there is lots to do and the rest of the country isn't far away.

I just hate the commute!

The shops are better, the galleries & museums are better, theres tons of night life, its very cosmopoliton, so much to see & do, as you say, Lance. Actually, you could have a months holiday there & only scratch the surface London can be vibrant, exciting & scarey all at the same time ! Ive been many times & each time it feels like the whole worlds been compacted into this tiny world called London !. The mix of people is amazing.So many different cultures, smells of cooking, colours, events etc ! But give me a cosy ramshackle cottage hidden far away in the countryside anytime, where I can be secretive & quiet, & no-one knows where I am !

I've only had a few days in London, but I might say it's a better tourist destination than New York. Far more beautiful.

And the best bit is Halfy an hour or so on a train and you can be nowehere near the place! A few hours more than that and you can be in Scotland instead.

And so let that be a lesson to you Halfy... make sure you get the right train and dont go passed the wall. Hadrian and his men built it for a damn god reason!!

Yeah we asked them to build it!
