this is not a photo opportunity
graffiti, random man with ice-cream and big ben.
restaurant glasses
i saw these glasses on a table in a restaurant through their window and took a photo not expecting it to come out.
but it did and looks quite arty i think. who’d a thought it ?
the new BBC building statue thing
the new BBC building in Langham Place is coming along nicely. they’ve revealed the new glass hat thing in recent days. very … nice.
perhaps they’ll fill it full of champagne at licence fee payers’ expense ?
big nose’s big signs
big nose ugly guy sent me these excellent photos of the signs at the back of the British Museum. these signs have only been up for about a month and i was planning on searching them out myself. now i don’t have to ! thanks big nose, and good luck with your emigration.
climbing on lions is never a good idea
new pages at paddington
for those new to funkypancake you may not know that i collect numbered posters. this started when i noticed that each poster in paddington train station had a page number on it.
i’ve never seen the book that these giant pages (about A0 size i think) come from, but we have seen a number 57 before, but it looked slightly different. Probably a different book.
and this one is page number 5 which is quite intriguing. must be a new book.
web dog sign
here is a dog sign has been graffiti’d and posted to fantastic website Pictures of Walls. this one is here
i found it via Russell’s blog (Russell reads this blog i think, so “hello Russell” if you’re passing).
many uses for chewing gum
look at all these things you can’t do with chewing gum. you can’t smoke it, eat it, drink it or drop it. at least not in this hall. thank you !
derwent water
one afternoon we walked round Derwent Water with the girls. it took a while but was worth it.
i’m not great at landscape shots, but i took a few to practice. here’s some flat water
drinking john
as regular readers of funkypancake will know, i’m rubbish at sleeping and sitting still. on holiday i got up at 4.30 a couple of days and went to bed around midnight most nights. there’s just so much to do in life isn’t there ?
anyway, if my mornings were all about taking photos, my evenings were all about chewing the cud whilst supping the crud with john. we even found a secret passage which brought us out in to the basement of a pub !
just golfin’s about
crazy golf is our favourite family sport. it can be quite a dangerous one too of course.
here i am going for a hole in two watched by my ever-suffering daughters.
eventually it went in the hole
and then kezia grew incredibly big on the last hole
