London is a massive inspiration for this blog. It is a part of my life, my self and my writing.
When I came to London I had a book in my suitcase: Time Out’s 1000 things to do in London.
I was absolutely convinced that I will do all of them. Four years later, and I still haven’t.
Even though the blog is about the quest to find the magnificent something, this part of the blog is about completing the List, but also making my own, with things that I did and loved, and hopefully you will love doing too!
Here is an index of the posts:
Time Out: 1000 things to do in London
Coming soon!
And more:
Don’t pull the Giant Plug
Investigate the mysterious case of the Stop-Sign Snatchers.
Observe the point where art meets retail, like Oasis and Selfridges.
Discover London’s worst kept secrets with a twist, like museum caffes (TATE Modern, more to come).
Great shot!
Thank you!!
Such a cool shot, love the Vignette.
I came armed with the same guidebook and 3 years later have just scratched the surface. Good luck crossing them off!
I have also used a Time Out list of things to do in London, the one I’ve seen is only 101 things though! I hope you manage to cross them all off.
it will take me time, but I will try my best
Just incredible. Love this blog and am going to enjoy watching it grow over the next year.
Thank you for your lovely words! I will enjoy sharing my 2012 with lovely people like you!!:)
Beautiful picture. My grandmother was from England. She was born in Warwickshire. would love to see some pictures of that area.
I see you love London as much as I do! Fabulous shot!
Wow — this photo is amazing!
Your blog is wonderful! I have such as itch to return to London (I visited briefly on a school trip to Oxford last year, but didn’t get to see nearly as much as I wanted to as I get hopelessly lost trying to get to St Pancras!).
This is what I want to do: Move to England and blog the who adventure! I’ve never flown on a plane, I’ve never gone any further than the east coast. I have a couple obstacles in my way, but it’s a goal of some sort.
I will get there. Someday. Sooner than later hopefully.
I like your pictures
Ha ha! It’s the same with Washington, DC’s Smithsonian museums – there’s even MORE underground in storage that isn’t available to show in public because of space limitations! I live in San Francisco, and it’s continuously morphing, and would be just as difficult as London to catch it all before in changes! Ah, enjoy whatever order you come across something – that’s more fun and less a J-O-B or work projec!
great shots!
I’m moving to London by the end of April and am experiencing a mixture of excitement and dread as its been quite a few years since I’ve lived in a big city. But you describe London so beautifully as a city full of such wonder and potential that you’ve allowed me to look forward to my move, and to experiencing London myself.
Thank you
I’ll be using your blog not just as my ‘surviving in London guide’ but as a guide to actually enjoying all that London has to offer and perhaps finding my own magnificent something. xx
