Todays word is TRANSPORT...so many images l could do for this word living in London! I was helping my daughter to move the last bits and pieces from her flat and every two seconds a plane flew over her flat. Cars roared past to the North Circular, buses went towards kingston, Putney and all corners of London. During our trip to Islington, we went passed London buses, London Tour Busses, motor bikes, scooters, trishaws, bikes and even saw a uni cycle! But my mind kept coming back to the Land Rover 1tonne which is parked in the front garden of a house near my daughter's flat. To my knowledge, it has never moved for the 12 years l have lived in this area! It fasinates me, it has to be my image of the day!
Ha..just realised that l had caught my husband in this image...doing the shopping for me...bless himx
