I need a time machine. Let's all pretend it's yesterday and I might get away with being late...

If anyone would like a miserable shot of typical grotty London this is a retail park in Highams Park. We have a lot of places like this around the edge of towns.

Chingford Green (it's tomorrow here).

In contrast to Satguru's 'grotty' London...

This is a distant view of the fantastic 3 mile long sandy beach at Woolacombe in North Devon from the tiny hamlet of Mortehoe. Woolacombe's beach regularly ranks as the very best beach in the British Isles and was recently voted the fourth best in all of Europe.

However, the feather in the cap for the tiny village came in 2015 when the beach was ranked 13th in the world by users of Trip Advisor beating a number of beaches in more exotic locations such as Turkey, Florida and Australia.

It's got a lot of grotty parts but I wouldn't live anywhere else. This is the edge of Epping Forest.

Everybody (allegedly) loves Haribo... I do and these are my favourites - Pinballs!

An unusual sign (for Britain anyway) in Edmonton.

I call this one 'You Can Go Your Own Way' - North Devon, February 2018

That is so lovely! What beach is it?

Hi Ren... This is Woolacombe beach. Three miles of safe golden sand.

A highly expensive architect designed house in Hampstead garden Suburb.

I thought so. Thanks

They are building tower blocks non stop in Colindale. I can see all the cranes at night from upstairs.

Edmonton has got a lot of these very similar tower blocks.

'Bertie'

Bertie is the latest addition to the family; a 14 week old British Blue shorthair and he is a very, very mischievous little rascal!

Oh, a lovely cat! And exactly like the one opposite although bluer so Sue can see what I meant.

Epping Forest in Chingford. It stretches many miles on the border of London and Essex.

The Ark Royal banqueting suite in Enfield.

This is a corn snake that belongs to a friend of mine. It's not the best image but it proved difficult to get a good macro shot of a very active snake!

A pub on Ham Common, Richmond.

Not so balmy on the English Riviera with the arrival of 'The Beast from the East'.
