Walking memoirs

Day 1 – 39

The warmth of the sun as it hit my face at City Road basin

The richness of Holborn viaduct

The poorness of the one on Rosebery Avenue

Bowie then Jimi – Clerkenwell Road

Rough sleepers – St Pancras church

Cigarette ends, McDonald’s – littered London!

The difference that half an hour can make – people, traffic

The Goths – old Angel tube

The early starters – Coffee houses, Pubs, Deliveries, Rubbish collections

The smell of a freshly laundered person on their way to somewhere

The warmth of the sun as it hits my face again – on my way home – LSE halls Rosebery Avenue

Peacefulness
