I Intend To Escape ......................And Come Back

Some More Photographs

I do not profess to any photographic skill, but do look to chronicle some parts of Hackney and indeed London life that may otherwise be forgotten.

Scroll down and look to your left. Additions this week include a shot of Moleman's house in Hackney (now undergoing the benefits of stabilisation and no doubt eventual sale) some of the attractions in Brent (stop sniggering) and a shot of an Army Chinook flying over London Bridge.

Are we at war or something?

A Week Without Posts!

Well, very nearly.

I've been working away, and that, plus my usual grouchiness in the hayfever season, means I have not bothered posting for a while.

I'm sure the world has continued without me!

New Pictures Added

Scroll down to your left, and I've added several new pictures to the London and On The Road sections of this site.

I was particularly pleased to capture the work of graffiti artist Hutch, before some clown goes over it...........

Why The Adverts?

You can't have failed to notice that this blog is now taking Google Ads.

Whilst not exactly a sell out on the scale of Dylan going electric or Bill Hicks giving up smoking, please feel free to abuse my grovelling to corporate capitalism!

New Pictures

I have stacks of good photographs I have yet to add to the site.

Recent aditions that have gone on include some from rural Cheshire, and graffiti pictures from the old railway line between Finsbury Park and Highgate.

Tinkering With The Pictures

I have been meaning to add some new pictures to the various albums on this site for some time, and have finally got round to doing so.

You can check them out lower down the page.

I should stress that no one in Class War is responsible for the graffiti naming George Galloway as Hitler by the way. Yes they are both vain, egotistical reactionaries with moustaches, constantly looking eastwards, but there the similarity ends!

What No Posts?

Apologies for the weeks absence.

I have been laughing so hard at the Archbishop of Canterbury's views on Sharia Law, I have been unable to post. Well done Beardie - I always knew you must be good for something!

Rowan Williams: At Least The Nun's Are Still Speaking To Him!

Some New Photographs

I have rather neglected my photography this year.

Perhaps in recognition of this, I have added a few photos to the site this week. As usual the Hackney pictures concentrate on what we are losing, not gaining, from all the change that is occurring locally. My London pictures are perhaps a tad more optimistic - the magnificent development of St Pancras train station.

One step forwards, two steps back?

Normal Service Will Now Be Resumed

If you have been wondering why posts have been so occasional over the past two weeks, I have had a few IT problems.

The gremlins have now been slayed, and it is back to business as usual.

The Term "Football Club"

In every interview I have heard Sammy Lee give since he became Bolton manager, he has used the term "Bolton Wanderers Football Club".

Why do some football managers do this?

Does Sammy Lee fear we might catch a snippett of his interview and mistakenly assume he was talking about Bolton Wanderers Dry Cleaners, or Bolton Wanderers Chinese Take Away?

Why the long-winded pomposity?
