Another Fun Weekend in River City

The weekend was fairly low-key: laundry, checking out gyms, wandering along the Thames and looking at the sites, before meeting with two people from my fledgling GURPS group for dinner and cards at a local Starbucks in the West End.

We had a lot of fun, which is always a good thing, and I got home in time to watch "Torchwood".

Here's some pix of things that I saw over the weekend: an escape artist (or amateur bondage monkey) by the London Eye. I was only able to see a little bit due to the huge crowd, but he was actually pretty good. When I went back later, there was another fellow that escaped from a strait jacket.

And here's a picture of someone blowing massive bubbles. There was a gaggle of children clustered nearby charging back and forth so that they could try to capture or pop the bubbles floating through the air.



And lastly, the student march on Parliment to argue for less money spent on Iraq or nukes, and more money spent on education.



Can't argue with that sentiment.
