Epsom

We went in to Epsom today on a lunchtime raiding visit to get some food. Met some interesting people like the poor man who wanted to cross the road BEFORE everyone else.  “EIther move or get out the way”.  The road was clear so I walked but kept him in my peripheral vision.  When we got to the other side I deliberately crossed right in front of him, making him change direction and tip over his drag-along case.  I said “Sorry, I didn’t hear you say ‘please'”.  I didn’t hear what he said ;-). Politeness costs nothing, however, the lack of it can cost you time and a loss of face.

This reminded me of a gigantic rubik cube or a 3D OXO grid, made from perspex.  It’s actually a window wall of a building and is made from glass and steel.  Very open and airy.  Modern lines without being antiseptically clean.  It would have been good to photograph the view from that inside that window structure too.  Maybe another time.

Heading South

An early start.  Taxi through the morning fog into Glasgow Airport and then off to Lundinium to visit the family.  Pretty faultless flight with an excellent bump-free landing.  Picked up at the airport by our son-in-law and whizzed through byroads and shortcuts to avoid the dreaded M25.  Strangely it’s colder down in London than it was in Scotland.

We hadn’t picked the best seat for photography, but to be honest, we were pleased just to get a seat and be on our way south.  We had some lovely views climbing out of fogbound Glasgow.  Strange to see the fog so localised around Glasgow and the Clyde.
