Sunday Sky

Another cloud photo – will she never stop?! It looks stormy but in fact it’s a calm, mild evening.

Destination

A closer image of Number 1, London Bridge. Reflected in its intriguing windows are some cranes, together with the towers of one of London’s mainline rail stations, London Cannon Street, which has a roof-top garden and restaurant.

Number One, London Bridge

Familiar

I took my camera out with me this evening, because I knew I would be passing this London landmark. Rather delightfully, the bridge was being raised to allow a very large yacht to pass through.

It reminded me of the story my mother has told in the past. When she was in her twenties, she and my Dad used to travel up together to their respective work places in Central London. Often they would catch a lift from an old friend, Tom. It was easier in those days to drive into town and I guess pretty simple and inexpensive to find a parking space compared to today.

Although the roads might have been less busy, the river traffic was heavier than it is today, and less predictable. The bridge lifted more frequently and often the car Mum, Dad and Tom were in got stuck waiting in the queue whilst the bridge was up. She was frequently late for work and it drove her crazy!

Oh, oh, oh the sweetest thing

Computer froze yesterday so I forgot to finish posting this.

Summer Solstice

More reflections.

Happy Birthday, Daddy

Hubby’s birthday today, and after a slightly tardy start, we went and visited Ightham Mote. Here is Daddy with his two beautiful girls – a little disappointing that Rosie has her eyes closed, but I think it makes a nice photo anyway.

Little Feet

Not today’s weather, unfortnately, as we have drizzle and dimness.

A Divorcing matter

Me: Aren’t the clouds magnificent!

Him: Magnificent? Er . . . why? They’re just clouds.

Me: *Sigh!*

Some people just don’t get sky porn.
