Egg-land

Have eaten far too many breakfasts concerning egg over here.

**************

Situated in Manc. Waiting to pursue the bus at 2:30 am to Piccadilly Gardens ("downtown" or just before), in order to catch the bus to Heathrow at 3:45 am, via Birmingham (a nice pre-dawn stop of 1 hr); then Heathrow (a wait of: too many hours): arrive 10:15 am, flight at 3:15 pm.

MANC:

Walked along the canal. Met these nice bridges.



Passed refuse workers. Shuffling a mini fright; picking up dead fish and water bottles (w/ bicycle.)


Ended up in Salford.


Chains pulled into thin air space.


Lowry Museum. Saw previous (now) imagined mills and humans-in-despair; as per brushstroke paintings.

Bought records. Turns out this Morrissey fellow is quite a big deal here.


LONDON:
The first infatuation with the mighty (miniscule) chimney sweep.


Often arranged in clumps, like chess pieces on a board.


And the latent industrial cylinders, amid omnipresent London brickwork:


And also, a wedding. In Norwich, oh my.
