The World Reimagined

Posted on Nov 2, 2022 by TanGental

This tour covers about three to four miles around the city of London. For convenience, I started at Mansion House tube – it was a Sunday, a day when public transport tends to be the subject of various last minute changes – and worked my way east towards St Paul’s. Along the way I dipped off the route to take in the globe at the start by Bank tube before rejoining the route and heading towards Aldgate. That meant to one globe, shown nearest Cannon Street station slipped me by. But otherwise these are the globes.

About TanGental

My name is Geoff Le Pard. Once I was a lawyer; now I am a writer. I've published several books: a four book series following Harry Spittle as he grows from hapless student to hapless partner in a London law firm; four others in different genres; a book of poetry; four anthologies of short fiction; and a memoir of my mother. I have several more in the pipeline. I have been blogging regularly since 2014, on topic as diverse as: poetry based on famous poems; memories from my life; my garden; my dog; a whole variety of short fiction; my attempts at baking and food; travel and the consequent disasters; theatre, film and book reviews; and the occasional thought piece. Mostly it is whatever takes my fancy. I avoid politics, mostly, and religion, always. I don't mean to upset anyone but if I do, well, sorry and I suggest you go elsewhere. These are my thoughts and no one else is to blame. If you want to nab anything I post, please acknowledge where it came from.

    What a very clever way to present right thinking. Much better than defacing, or tearing down, what now may be seen as misguided, or plain wrong, memorials.

      Yes well put. I think you’re onto something. We may or may not agree with the sentiments but as a generator of debate and an exposure of views that may not get the airtime it’s splendid
