The walk from the London Eye to the Tate Modern, along the South Bank, has to be one of my favourites in London; particularly the view from the Tate over the Millennium Bridge to St Paul’s Cathedral.
Saturday was cold, damp and grey but a ‘flight’ on the London Eye lifted our spirits and a warming lunch in the Tate’s magnificent 7th floor restaurant was just perfect.
This was taken on the North side of the Millennium Bridge and after many attempts to ‘brighten’ the shot up, I’ve gone with a more atmospheric photo!

Whenever there is news of snow in London, intrepid reporters are sent to Parliament Hill on Hampstead Heath to capture the obligatory photo of children sledding.
There were plenty of sledding (and crying) children yesterday and the snow was a good 2″ thick with a fresh coating of powder. But the prize goes to the gentleman walking off the Heath with his ‘ski du fond’ equipment…that’s dedication.
