Halloween

A little early Halloween cheer. Scary Halloween cheer though....

Old Compton Street

London's premiere gay district. Kind of....

Autumn

Just some random wall near the Mall in London. I love that they actually have changing seasons here as opposed to just hot and cold back in Australia.

The Pembroke

There's my lover ;)

The Pembroke

The Pembroke it's classy innit!

Footpath

Sitting underneath the footpath. Kinda scary seeing feet walk over the little clear blocks.

Tower Bridge

Looking good for an old bridge ain't she. And no it's not the one in the song.

Big Ben

Anyone would think I had a thing for old Big Ben. Maybe I do...

Gordon's Wine Bar

I don't normally drink a lot of wine, but Gordon's Wine Bar in London is pretty awesome. they have a great little outdoor area and a very quiet and personal little cellar area for those intimate moments...

Regent Street

It's not the best picture of Regent Street at night but you can kind of see the curve in the street...

Piccadilly Circus at night

Train trips - Manchester

On the train up to Manchester. Gotta love the Northerners!

Soup

Living in the UK has introduced me to the world of soup. I've never eaten so much of it. I've also never eaten at my work desk so much...

Countryside

It's a guest picture today from Matt who is out in the English countryside. Quite picturesque isn't it.

X Factor

X Factor is huge here, they can't get enough of it. Last night I randomly caught one of the acts booted off in the first round - Nikos. He was bloody awful.

Random pub shot

Now where is my pint serving whench!

Houses of Parliament

I absolutely love that I can sit beside the Houses of Parliament during my lunch break.

All the leaves are brown...

And the sky is grey....ok enough Mamas and Papas. But the seasons are changing, it's getting chillier and colder in the evening. Welcome autumn.

Aquaduck

This is the Aquaduck that does tours round London. It's actually an old army vehicle that transported cargo and men from the ships during WWII.

Stairway to Heaven?!?

Or maybe just to me flat...

Channel 4

Big 4 made from umbrellas.

Soho

Big Ben

Oh how I love thee.

Pork Knuckle

I miss my almost daily pork knuckle indulgence from Oktoberfest....

Victoria tube

This didn't post last night so here is attempt two.

My first job in London was in Brixton so I travelled on the Victoria line quite a lot. Brixton scared the bejeezes out of me when I first went there because I'd only ever heard horror stories about it. However after a few weeks there I fell in love with it.

There wasn't much love for the Victoria line though.

New Scotland Yard

New Scotland Yard looks nowhere near as exciting as it sounds....

Piccadilly Circus

Piccadilly Circus is one the most famous places in London. Instead of a circus though, there is just a giant traffic jam, some fountain with people crawling and hanging all over it and of course some of the most expensive advertising space in the world.

I do love it though!

Hot dog!

Picture says it all really.

Your disco needs you!

Care packages

Can I get a holla for my mum! Nothing says I love you son like a box full of Chicken Twisties, Cherry Ripes, Minties and BBQ Shapes. Everything an Aussie needs.

Pigeon

Rats with wings!
