London on a cold and frosty morning

We have been blessed with a few bright clear mornings lately and I have taken full advantage of them by grabbing Erbie and setting off for a walk. I love the city in the morning all shiny brass and empty streets, it doesn't even have to be daft o'clock, these were taken at about twenty to eight.

@Heather
It is quiet and peaceful, and then rush hour happens and you can barely walk down the pavement or cross the road. Crazy!
