Reclaim The Beach..

We certainly did!

The day started with a trip to Mayfair. Met AC and minced around the American Embassy whilst half-heartedly looking for a tramp..

At this point we decided to 'hit the beach' and attempt to unearth lost treasures..

Facilities were ample and in good condition. While Big Ron is bringing you the sun soaked shores of California, I'm bringing you the scummy banks of the Thames.

Jumped quickly in to the Tate for a modern culture vaccination...

Matthew Benson!

I must insist you reach the Trinity church in Marleybone to capture some snaps of the devil caught in a telegraph pole.

My maingy digital camera cannot match the quality of the material that will emerge from your SLR.

Do it or I start an online petition, you know how effective those things are.

Do it! Do it! Do it!
