Chaps,
Just a reminder about tonight's walk. Looks like I'll get away from work a little earlier than expected so I should make the Balck Friar by 7.30pm at the latest.
Just a note about the walk - there is no plan other than to follow our noses and see where we end up. Naturally we can take in the Temple of Mithras, St Stephens-by-the Wardrobe, London Stone, Catrin Gwyndwr memorial etc if we fancy it. I realised the title implies following the route in Harold Clunn's invaluable 'Face of London' - but it's far too big to lug around.
See yer tonight - whoever can make it.
John

Yes, its a possibility John. Let me get back to you on that. I may be working. Love Queen Victoria Street - something proto-arterial about it. Then the city towering up in its density. Saw a memorial stone to two guys at the foot of an office block. I think it said they died in an accident. Were they window cleaners, their cradle plummeting, the whip of the loosened cable, to hit the ground on a tawdry tuesday afternoon. Or did I imagine the whole thing. I knew somehow QVS was the Clunn you'd choose to "do" and would prefer to come along.

Dear All,Anyone up for a wander through the City on Friday evening (11th Aug) say about 7.30/8pm? I propose meeting outside The Black Friar and then heading up Queen Victoria Street, keeping it vague and unplanned allowing ourselves to explore the alleys and oddities that the City has to offer in abundance. (see my blog for one recent example http://islingtongue.blogspot.com).An alternative date could be Monday 14th August around the same time or slightly earlier (note how I'm gearing this around my NFT shifts). Please do a 'Reply All' so we can do some sort of co-ordination between our merry little band of crypto-topographers/ born-again flaneurs/ vagrants.......CheersJohnPS Have to confess nicking the line 'Doing a Clunn' from Nick - as ever the source of a choice phrase to fit the occassion.
