So today was THE BIG DAY of the year and the Bleeding London Exhibition opened (City Hall, Queen's Walk - runs until the 14th August) and what a bleeding' marvellous evening it was, despite the tube strike. I was rather…

Oh dear, not a great day as I forgot my camera! So much to do ahead of the opening of the exhibition that in the excitement, I left it at home:-( It was a day of iPhone pix today and…

This is a mechanical caterpillar and when it turns into a mechanical moth, it will have mechanical wings. Day #186 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

I couldn't do another selfie … so instead here is the starting point of my super hectic white rabbit day. Day #185 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

Red horsepower and matching silk sash that I just happened to have about my person in my quest to find a pair of matching shoes. Hardly a victory sash as I failed miserably - it's an odd shade of red,…

Another reference to the Greek tragedy that is swiftly becoming a Greek farce. I studied the contents of my purse to achieve today's pic. Day #182 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word…

Geoff's back and so I wanted to ensure that today's pic reflected this. Furthermore, there was a distinct lack of courting couples abroad - just lots of groups of young things enjoying the extraordinary weather. So I've gone for the…

Gossip-mongering and idling - what a wonderful way to pass the day, but I'm not sure St Paul's would approve of the nave for such purposes. Nowadays, the gossip-mongers and idlers have to while away the days in cafes. Day…

The whole Mozart/Salieri thing in Amadeus was decidedly pokerish. Day #179 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

And because pigeons are pretty universal, today's was an easy find. Day #178 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

I'm not exactly suffering at the sewing machine, but it's hard work and so justifies my eventual reward. Day #177 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

A sciophyte … I think. Day #176 of the second 365 project, where the daily pic is informed by the OED word of the day.

All this stuff about white flaps to keep the sun off your neck is fine and dandy, but Havelock is also a hosepipe brand name ... and guess which one was easier to find in SW3? Day #175 of the…

As the Greek tragedy continues, I'm so confused that I don't know whether today's events could constitute a peripeteia or not. It does all feel a bit like Groundhog Day ... Day #174 of the second 365 project, where the…

Not sure how controversial Bartok was, but as one of Hungary's greatest composers, he was certainly renowned. This statue is on the corner of Pelham Street and Onslow Square because he once stayed nearby in Sydney Place … errr, why…

This photo was taken at precisely 4.42 this morning - the time of sunrise. It was positioned as such, since the sun's rays were supposed to shine through the London Eye ins a sort of modern Stonehenge type of way.…

In the excitement of Photo 24 and the prospect of a sunset shoot on the London Eye (with tripods!!!), the word of the day passed me by. But boredom queuing for coffee prompted shooting the apple, and as luck would…

I'm afraid this is as close as we get to a porteur today and whilst not exactly lifting dancers, Varys did lift an imp. The excitement at starting Game of Thrones Season 5 was enough to push all thoughts of…
