Last week I had a wee stroll along the Regents Canal, from Camden Lock to Kings Cross, which means I have now covered the whole route from Paddington Basin to Limehouse Basin and the River Thames. And as I was expecting it was a rather forgettable stroll, that I wont be doing again in a hurry. The most...

Battersea Park, which is located over the river from me in the South of London, is a 200 acre inner city green space, which I found to be a fantastic place to chill out at, after a morning from hell. Battersea Park really is a truly wonderful place to escape the madness of city life. On Friday morning...

Camden Town an area, which is renowned for its nightlife, markets, the canal, as well as gangs, drugs and prostitutes. Whatever your poison is you are likely to find it in Camden. On Sunday afternoon I had a wee wander around the Camden Lock area and the whole place was buzzing. I almost couldn’t...

Trafalgar Square in London is quite probably one of my favourite places for people watching. I love grabbing myself a seat on a bench or on top of Nelson’s Column and just watching the world go by. It is a great place to chill out for a few hours, it is the centre of London in more ways than one. When...

On Saturday afternoon I thought I would head out and be tourist again. It was a brilliant day, the sun was shining bright and central London was buzzing with locals and tourists alike enjoying the amazing vibe that the coolest city in the world offers. There were a few things I had to do and places I...

Maybe I got too much sunshine this morning or something. It is such a beautiful day here in London. London is a city that at times can...

I’m going to be man of a few words for a change today. Instead I’m going to feature a series of pictures, which are all derived from the same picture but have been slightly altered in Photoshop CS4. I found a boring run of the mill picture on Google, that someone had made a bit of mess with...

In follow up to yesterdays pictures of London taken by me  the honourable  William K Wallace the man with the plan, as promised here we have the black and white version of the same pictures. I thought it would be interesting to compare them and see how different things look in black and white as...

Pictures of London brought to you by William K Wallace the Scottish blogger in the Big Smoke, the capital of the world. I thought it would be fun to feature 10 pictures from around London in colour and the same 10 pictures tomorrow in black and white. Why you may ask me and my answer is quite simply...

The other day my plan was to follow the Thames Path from the 02 in Greenwich and walk into central London. When I left Kilburn at 11am it was dry, but by the time I finished my meeting it was of course raining and bitterly cold. And to make matters worse I forgot to take my gloves with me. I thought...

Today I have decided to feature some of London’s most famous landmarks in pictures for the benefit of my American friends. It is the start of another year and I thought I might as well do my bit for the London tourist board and showcase some of London’s iconic sights. The Labour Government, along...
