"A winter's day in a deep and dark December..."

London in the winter gets very little light, if you've lived in the southern hemisphere it's a big shock to suddenly be deprived of the sun's attentions. Last year I found myself enjoying walking about in the dark nights, it gave me time to myself. However lately I've found it oppressive and slightly disheartening. The only real benefit being that Westminster Cathedral looks all the more inviting with its night lights on.

I find it very easy to slip into a routine of sleeping late and rising late and very often I get only 2-3 hours of daylight. On wednesday I slept so long that I actually received no daylight.

There doesn't seem to be very much of any interest to post today, especially pursuant of the NATCP.

Today's snapshot is a photo of a tree I found interesting whilst walking about central London. The road it's on is parallel to Oxford Street and I walked down it with Kev a few weeks ago. Anyhow the Church was holding an antiques fair of sorts which we inspected in search of tacky items for Kevin to buy Beth as a memento of his stay in London. Sadly the Churchyard was disappointingly low on 'crappy stuff' so we instead carried on.

I can't even explain why I particularly liked that tree, I just did so I snapped off a couple of shots with my trusty 610.

Tomorrow is, of course Monday and with Monday comes Counseling and Company Law. A healthy array of side-dishes if there ever was one. I'm left to wonder how my tutorial class did without me on last week's tutorial. Perhaps this week they might actually answer questions. I can only hope :)

Later

I remember seeing that tree and thinking it was nice.
