I had already realized it last time I paid a call to London. There are a lot of red details everywhere. I got fascinated by these spry dashes of energy. They couple up to marvel with the vast, dark to light panoply of brick-walled buildings. London’s calling – hop on the red ride!
What’s marvelous about the double-deckers is that you get a sightseeing trip for a regular fare. The Big Guy behind is as majestic as ever.
From the square where we got our discount musical tickets. Nice, easy-going Saturday morning buzz.
Take a ride on the classy side. Hackneys or saloon cars are a never-fading value. How nice that London has decided to keep the tradition well and rumbling.
I know…Â I have a soft spot for posing.
Mini-mal effort, maximal effect.
Don’t you just dream about receiving a call from a long-lost friend at this Battersea over-looking phone booth? Right in the Thames’s gentle embrace.

It looks that the weather in London was good. I liked the lonely phone booth pic a lot. Red is actually my favorite colour so this post was really nice.
How was the musical? I booked tickects to “Rock the Ballet” show herein Helsinki and can’t wait to see the show in August.
Hauskaa vappua Susu! I am flying to Stockholm tomorrow morning and will leave the chaotic Helsinki behind. Before that I will enjoy some champagne with my friends and have a lovely dinner. It really feels that spring is here finally.

Audrey – Once in London, that all-around red just popped into my eye so persistently. It provides such a wonderful contrast against the sober building hues.
Spark – I hope that you’re evening out was sweet. Stockholm… that’s a city where I find folks surprisingly up-to-date on fashion and trends. Who would think up North and all… at least from the Western European perspective, but yeah.
The musical “Blood Bothers” was a real treat. A story about twins separated at birth and having lead very different lives due to class differences. It ave interesting things to ponder about the English, or other, society.
Hyvää vappua sulle myös Spark!
