On Friday afternoon I popped into London’s City Hall,  which is the headquarters of the Greater London Authority for a visit. I wasn’t there in search of Mayor Boris Johnson…well not this time! I was there to take in the views from the 9th floor balcony to see for myself if they were...

Early yesterday morning I ventured forth on a mission to find the mystical London Stone. This insignificant looking lump of limestone is reputed to ensure the safety of the city of London, I kid you not! There is a ancient myth that claims the Stone’s safety is linked to the city. “So long...

Chocolate Beer…yesterday afternoon I went in search of beer, not any old beer, but Chocolate Beer. I had to travel many miles from my home in Kilburn, all the way to a bar called The Greenwich Union…I think you can guess what part of London this bar is located in! Real life, or I should say...

Earlier on this morning I was wandering down to Kilburn Park tube station, heading off on another secret mission…honestly I was! I had just turned onto Cambridge Avenue, when this young guy who looked around 16 or 17 years old came walking out the job centre with a couple of application forms...

Primrose Hill  in North West London is a wee hill and park area that is a great place to enjoy life in London when the sun is shining. After many hours wandering around Camden on Sunday I took a wee stroll up a hill that may be only 256 feet high, but I can assure you it offers some of the best views...

A few months ago, I had a meeting at ExCel London, which is a exhibition and conference centre that is located in the Borough of Newham. Once upon at time this area of London was a thriving and huge docklands area, known as the Port of London. Which was once upon a time the largest port in the world....

I hit a mental block last night during my writing session for the book I’m putting together, so off I went for a wee wander around Kilburn in search of inspiration. It was around 9.30pm and day light had turned to darkness. I didn’t have any particular route in mind, apart from that I would...

I have a confession to make for I have sinned. My soul needs to be cleansed and I feel that  the only way I can get onto the road too redemption is by confessing my sin to my legions of readers. I suppose if I was a Catholic I could take a wee wander down to my nearest church and confess to the Priest...

I was on the Road earlier on this afternoon doing whatever it is I do for a real job, when I suddenly had the urge to have ice cold pint of beer. It was lunch time and I felt like I had earned a swift pint to help cool me down before I jumped on the Sauna back to Kilburn, I meant to say the Tube. I found...

I personally find it a wonderfully relaxing experience to walk next to water, whether it be the sea, river, loch or canal, it is a great way to chill out and rest the body, mind and soul. London may be many miles from the sea, but we of course have the River Thames and quite a few canals, which are great...

On Saturday I was out and about wandering around London on my be a tourist day. By divine intervention I amazingly got myself to where I was intending to be. Limehouse Basin, was the place I wanted to be at and after one hell of a long walk and a few pints of   Fosters lager in the Prospect of Whitby...
