\u00a0Some odd shots from my recent London visit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"london-wheel-1\"<\/a>LONDON EYE<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0Not much left of the old East End, but a few relics such as this still remain.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"the-ten-bells-1\"<\/a>THE TEN BELLS, COMMERCIAL STREET, SPITALSFIELD<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jack the Ripper’s favourite pub! Stalked several of his victims from these premises.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"old-lady-of-threadneedle-street-1\"<\/a>ROYAL \u00a0EXCHANGE<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"dirty-dicks-1\"<\/a>DIRTY DICK’S PUB, LIVERPOOL STREET<\/strong><\/p>\n

Right across from the Liverpool Street station. One of my favourites back in the day when it proudly really lived up to its name as the dirtiest pub in London. Now terribly up market and yuppified. \u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n
