Another day wandering in London

As usual we start our journey by tube! I would rather travel above ground but sometimes it is quicker this way. One good thing about travelling this way is being able to "people watch"!

A great many people these days travel to work on a bike. It is a combination of train and tube prices being very expensive, the bombs in London and the "Green Movement".

This young man on his bike may not be around to celebrate his next birthday if he carries on riding his bike like this. The car coming round the corner missed him by about 2 inches!

Small people they must have around here judging by this sign!

Pity about the state of this house... it could be so beautiful.

Urban gardens!

If only l could have reached these roses that had been thrown out... but my reach was just... not... long enough... shame!

So delicate and beautiful but l normally see them in blue not this beautiful white.

These shoes were left out for the dustbin men to collect. Hope a homeless person or someone that needs them finds them first.

I love the colours but a person l know thinks the flowers are like faces and she is spooked by them!

I am not a cat lover but l think this cat's eyes are amazing!

Why can't people put their rubbish in a bin?

Health and safety would have a field day with this work-force!

My son will understand this... Oh look, a Hamster Pot!

The happy yellow door will lead you into a relaxing yoga centre!

Some of the "things" we saw in a small cafe we found, hidden away round the corner from where we hope my daughter's new flat will be! fingers crossed.

What is all this wearing socks with shoes about? If you were told at school to do this you would have rebelled!

Things l saw through the tube window on the way home....
Love this grumpy monkey!

Don't you just love this dog? But somehow l feel they should be pulling a sledge not on a lead in London!

Police outside the East Putney Tube Station..argh...must be a football match on!

One of the lovely plants that greets me when l walk into the gardens round my flat... bliss!

The beautiful night sky and Alfie's trip to the Hydro-pool

On the way to see our son and daughter-in-law, these were some of the most amazing skies we saw.

The reason we we went up to Rutland was to help Gemma and Andrew move house. They are in the same lovely village ....just further along the street. This is how Alfie dealt with the move!

 This is Tony helping...can you see Andrew?

 Please excuse this image but this is how Alfie slept on our bed. Very elegant Alfie!

 This is their lovely new home.

 Alfie on his way to his session at the Hydro-pool...he LOVES it.

 Can you see the name of this Kennels and Cattery? Thorpe by Water Country  Club!

Alfie was SO desperate to get into this pool it was hard to actually to help him in. It was so funny to watch.

 " Oh which one do l pick up..can l manage all of them at the same time?" Don't you just love those eyes? Ha!

Alfie had been working really hard and now has  a life jacket put on to help to work his back legs. He loves it, you can almost see him smiling.

 The proud parents!

Being picked up out of the pool but unfortunetly he was picked up a little to near the base of his tail...Not a happy Alfie! He jumped back into the pool.

 "Oh thank goodness for the ledge..l can rest!Phew!"

 A very wet and tired Alfie leaning on the side of the pool, making his way to the exit point.

Alfie was so tired his back legs collasped when lifted out of the pool and had to be held up while being dried.

 A blow dried Alfie.

 Back on duty.
