Simon the Snowman

I do think Simon looks a bit like a gentleman with his scarf, black hat and red heart shaped buttons. And he is still standing!
I finally had the time to sort out the photos I took over Christmas, New Year and here back in London.

Up and down in London town

November 11th, 2009

It is not going that well with the job hunting, and I had a bit of bugger of a day today, so instead of words – here are a couple of photos I took yesterday night and today.

Soutbank Christmas lights

I don’t really like Christmas but the blue and white lights currently installed in the [...]

A room with a view

August 5th, 2009

A room with a view

Taken while sitting on my bed yesterday. The moon looks huge, doesn’t it?
Other short notes:

We loved G-Force. I mean what is not to like, it’s talking guinea pigs! And mice! And a mole! And it is Bill in 3D. Apart from the slightly over the top Transformers like scene it was [...]

Leonard the squirrel

July 23rd, 2009

Meet Leonard, the squirrel

Meet Leonard, the squirrel, my new neighbour. I know that most people don’t like the grey squirrels because they are making life for the red squirrels very difficult. But I must admit that I still find them cute. I spotted Leonard when I left my flat this morning, he was sitting on [...]

Paris – city of colours

March 31st, 2009

Paris Je t’aime

I had a full Sunday in Paris, and I had made a plan of what I wanted to see.

View onto the Arc de Triomphe, Paris

(Just because the colours of this photo go so well with the colours of the design)
Second report about Paris (the non tv-2 one) is on its way, as are the rest of the photos.

Portland Bill

I think it is fair to conclude that the English south coast is beautiful no matter where you go. The same goes for the light houses!

Funky pebble

Does this pebble look like a face to you too?
And just in case the “mood of growing satisfying climax” made you wonder what sort of books I read – that’s a completely innocent Wallander thriller.

Photos of The Isle of Man are up in the photo gallery.
My personal favourites:
Jonathan Livingstone Seagull
and
Point of Ayre lighthouse
Dover photos are up too.

Seals on the Isle of Man

On my first day out on the Isle of Man I drove to the Langness Peninsula, for a first light house watch. I had to ask my way several times. I could see the lighthouse, but could not seem to find the road that would lead me to it. So [...]

Lighthouse Lunatic

May 6th, 2008

South Foreland Lighthouse near Dover

With a long bank holiday approaching last Friday and the weather being lovely, I decided to escape London, again, and impulsively booked myself into a friendly B&B in Dover.

A Chelsea Walk

March 9th, 2008

Fence

I am recovered from the frantic couple of weeks I had. After spending nearly all day story boarding yesterday, today I picked up my camera (it has been too long!) and took it for a walk. A walk from my home to Chelsea along the Thames Path has long been on my list of things [...]

Men on the loose

July 29th, 2007

Men on the loose
Taken on a Saturday morning in front of Westminster Cathedral, London.
Here is one for you: Who are they and where are they going? (click on thumbnail for larger version)
[Short script is done, but Davy wants me to write a couple of pages on the 90 page feature script too, so I [...]

The Thames

April 2nd, 2006

The Girl and The Thames
This is the Thames. And when you look at it, the water doesn’t really look clean. But clean or not, this is the water I get out of my tap at home. We get our drinking water from the Thames up here. And it looks clean coming out of the tap, [...]
