I headed north today to join the London Loop Walk in the mean streets of Croydon for short stretch before heading back south to Surrey

The mean streets of Croydon AKA Coulsdon Common. A little over ten years ago when the weather was a little bit different several Urbanites on a walk crammed themselves into a igloo on this green. Yes, there was deep snow.











Back in Surrey now...

This is a real gig and band - there have been posters up around here for a while pre-lockdown. Fairly sure it didn't happen in the end though.

I was up in Fleetwood at the beginning of last week with work and it was blowing a hooley and looking very desolate on the esplanade.

It's a place called "the sky" - you probably haven't seen it in a while.

What's going on in that last picture?

It's an ad on a bus stop (for P&O cruises I think), with a reflection of me taking a pic and the street behind me

This is how I remember places from when I visited in the eighties You could get posters with a grid of pictures just of colourful doors and windows.
