This week we returned to the Rosie for Lydia to have her hips scanned.  No problems so far but we have to return again.

Week 32

One of my jobs

this week was

to photograph

the launch of

the Barclaycard

sponsored FA

Premier League.

This included

shots of models

dressed in the

kits of the

teams and

portraits of

the head of the

FA and other

footie celebs.

Here Arsenal try to wrest the trophy from Manchester Utd during the pre-launch photocall.

London at lunchtime.  The place was deserted for a few seconds, just one man tying his shoe laces.

Colour at last!   Whilst updating images of a number of London landmarks with Jen, a student on work experience, we came across this man reading

a copy of 'Metro', the free London paper.
