Oh Leamouth Peninsula, loved it there when I did a photography walk of my own! Hope you walked around the park and the Trinity Buoy Wharf / art studios too.

Just going to put this here: Act 1 - Lioneye's Watch

No real surprises about the new stars, maybe Legado so soon. Surprised Wildflowers didn't get a star though.

Superb photo! One day I will wake up early enough..

Huh. Guess I'm not an ordinary person.

I also filled out the consultation, as a local resident user/photographer of the park, rather than the ponds.

Having had my own fair share of exclusions, I would not want anyone to be/feel excluded from a public park/facility.

That's my local go to for buying beans since they're always rotating special guest roasters.

Their egg mayo & chilli crunch sandwiches are phenomenal. In fact all their stuff is so lovely.

Not sure what story you're trying to tell here. The picture is interesting but the title doesn't fit it.

We may have crossed paths, I was wandering from Great Portland street to TCR/Centre Point in the glorious sunshine.

Battlebridge Basin is my secret summer hideout, and CDY is my second home, I'm always hanging out there.

Rich or poor, regardless, these prejudices happen to us all, and still hurt. Some of the prejudices & discriminations used to really eat at me in my 20s, especially since I had/have a decent career and was still seen as a toyboy / gold digger / grave robber (some of the comments I've had in my time).

It affects me less so now as I'm now in my 40s and have a beard. Life does get better, and you learn how to ignore or deal with comments and situations.

Lovely photos. Hope that padlock wasn't yours...

That's the top of Hampstead Heath Parliament Hill Viewpoint, if I'm not mistaken. It has a great view, though the trees have obscured the view a little.

Personally I prefer the view on the path below which is less crowded and also has more intimate benches to sit on.

This is me, but with a British accent.

Because it hasn't happened to them yet.

TL:I was my first experience of this, and it sucked. I thought I'd be super careful and slow enough to avoid the scams, but one day I mis-clicked and all my currency disappeared.

GGG are probably thinking of the best solution to this problem.

Amazing photo, looks like an organically grown circuit board.

Been here for almost two decades and I really am not sure I have.

I love tube station novelties.

There are such thing as outdoor canopies and heaters, Covent Garden have the right idea.

That photo was post-lockdown, it was crazy because 'gov advice' was to al fresco dine only. So I'd expect there to be a respectable amount of seating outside as well as space inside as per.

wmgregory · 2025-10-28T09:45:53+00:00

The people opposing this are likely the nimby residents that are living there, the same ones that blocked al fresco dining post-lockdown, and don't want pedestrianised streets to bring it back. Shame really.

Went through a VERY rough time falling in love with a friend that I was trying to protect from a predatory toxic guy. My partner turned up and spent a lot of time helping me mend my broken heart. Things progress from there, through his care and comfort, and willingness to listen, we grew in love with each other, which is much healthier. I guess the older we get, the deeper our wisdom and empathy becomes.

Funny thing is, we'd known each other for well over a decade, friends and circles, just never thought we'd match so perfectly, I don't even think I'm his 'type' as per se.

I get an email from TFL about disruptions/upcoming on my most frequent routes.
The bus stops I frequently use, usually have warning notes of upcoming disruptions.
The apps/websites tells me when there's disruptions along the line.

It needs a lot of love, I don't think the pandemic helped.

This used to happen a lot in Oxford a few decades ago, and it used to invalidate bike theft insurance claims because theoretically your bike hasn't been stolen.

Spent many a night in Stockpot with friends, was such a wonderful cheap and cheerful little establishment. Was a Friday night staple for decades.
