Imagine...

"Imagine there's no countries, it isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or to die for, And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace..."
Flashmob dancers, John Lennon's song, Marble Arch, London

Victory!

Mixed emotions for the Oxford crew after winning the Boat Race on the Thames yesterday.

Ouch!!

International Pillow Fight Day was celebrated this afternoon in London's Kennington Park, but when the Mayor of London regains his sense of humour will he kindly restore this moment of blissful madness to its true home in Trafalgar Square. I'm sure Nelson will turn a blind eye and the lions may well roar their approval!

Bejapers and Begorrah!

Four Wise Men at the St Patrick's day Parade in London, but did they know that their patron saint was  a British missionary sent to evangelize their country and that he was originally kidnapped to Ireland as a 16 year old boy?

Saint Patrick's Fans

A Bearded Lady plays her Gold Harp on Regent Street, just a small cameo in the London parade celebrating Saint Patrick's Day, two days after his feast day but worth waiting for.

Dragon Dance

Chinese New Year will be celebrated in London tomorrow. I caught this moment a few years back on the Charing Cross Road, as the annual parade danced its way towards Chinatown.

Angel Face

Canary Wharf is not the first place I'd go looking for an Angel, but this one fell to earth last night during their Winter Lights festival.....on for another week!

New Year's Day!

The marching band of Pennsbury High School, from the USA, perform in Whitehall during London's New Year's Day Parade
