Todmorden market at night

Wednesday 14th March 2012, 7.00pm (day 202)

Todmorden market, 14/3/12

Little commentary to add to this one – just a nice scene I passed on the way home. I’m sure it would be a cheaper service to run if they turned the lights off when it was empty, though.

Decorations, Covent Garden

Thursday 17th November 2011, 7.45am (day 84)

Covent Garden decorations, 17/11/11

I spent a good portion of the middle part of my life avoiding London, but recently I have been visiting more often. It was nice today to be able to walk out of a hotel on quite a pleasant late autumn morning and be exploring Covent Garden before everywhere was open and while it was still fairly quiet. I think it’s too early to have Christmas decorations up anywhere – but I suppose these ones are quite attractive.

Delicatessen stall, Hebden Bridge market

Sunday 18th September 2011, 11.10am (day 24)

Deli stall, Hebden, 18/9/11

Alternate Sundays a market sets up in the centre of Hebden Bridge, five minutes’ walk from my house. This stall is always there with its amazing profusion of pots, packets, jars, bottles and bags of great Mediterranean food, all presided over by this otherwise cliched Yorkshireman. No picture snatched in passing can capture it, but there’s enough in this picture to make the glands begin watering anyway.
