Brats going to school in Commercial Road. One of the things that makes me wonder about the schools near where I live is the fact that the kids seem so segregated. For example, you're more likely to see white kids mixing with the black kids, rather than the muslim kids mixing with the other groups. It's sad seeing that.





 


More park bin signs.

South Bank skate park under the Royal Festival Hall/Queen Elizabeth Hall

 


Self-explainatory.

 

This I took in the passage way towards the back-entrance of Charing Cross Road Station where the elevators that connect it to Embankment are.

Closing stalls in the mini-market next to the escalators I've posted above.

 


Near Cannon Street Station.

The back of some dude on the 15 bus.



 


The front of Charing Cross Rd. Station.



 


Cloakroom sign in a Soho restaurant. Will some people ever stop calling the toilets 'cloakrooms'?

God I want to go back to London so bad.

demonrail666 06.17.2008 11:43 AM

They really are great photos. The ones around Tower Hamlets really capture it.

acousticrock87 06.19.2008 04:37 AM

NYZ? Did he just claim a city?

sarramkrop 06.19.2008 04:44 AM

I think that it's just some sort of temporary gig moniker.

A rare sight in London is a public water fountain:



 


And a satanic-looking one at that:


 


Plenty of public toilets, though:

Aldagte by night.



 


I took this outside my house where they play basketball and football.

you're going a bit mad with these, i like it.

doesn't it cost you outrageously to send them all to your computer or have you got bluetooth on your phone?

sarramkrop 06.19.2008 05:55 AM

I have a little bluetooth device that transfers all the pictures on my phone to my pc in less than 1 minute.

sarramkrop 06.19.2008 05:57 AM


 
 


It costs about a tenner and it's much faster and cheaper than buying a cable.

demonrail666 06.19.2008 06:20 AM

Have you had any awkward moments yet, with people spotting that you've photographed them? I'm imagining a couple taken on the good old number 15 bus might have potentially caused a bit of a scene. Be careful! A dead photographer (or one that's had his camera stolen, at least) is no good to anyone.

sarramkrop 06.19.2008 06:29 AM

The number 15 is no number 25. It's one of the most peaceful buses ever.

If I'm standing close to a person I make it look like I'm sending a text to someone. On the other hand, this morning I was walking down the street without taking any pictures and this junky asked me for some change, I told her that I was in a hurry, and she started shouting that I was a cunt and she hated people like me. It was frightening.

demonrail666 06.19.2008 06:33 AM

I haven't used the 15 bus in years. I remember it being OK then but we're talking about a time when you could smoke upstairs. Glad to hear that it hasn't degenerated in quite the way that the dreaded 25 (which also used to be OK) has.

Demonrail - have you ever eaten in Bodean's? It's the perfect place for you. I know there are different branches around. The only one i have been to is on Poland St. in Soho.

LOL. No, I don't know it. I was around there a couple of days ago and will check it out tomorrow maybe.What makes it so perfect for me? Is the food/drinks free?

sarramkrop 07.07.2008 10:03 AM

It's American.

demonrail666 07.07.2008 10:47 AM

Oh, well in that case ...:rolleyes:
