LONDON

London certainly isn't the most important place in England for me personally, but this doesn't mean I don't like going there every now and then. It is, after all, the most important and indeed most interesting city in Europe; I for one  prefer it to Paris.

I took the pictures below between 5 and 8 May 2005, when Linda and I spent a few days in London. The weather wasn't too bad: a bit breezy and the odd shower, but mostly sunny.
