One of the best ways to see a large city is on a bicycle. For someone with my level of fitness, this means taking a bike onto a train then spending the day exploring, remembering of course to take regular breaks. It was the last day before Ramadan so I had to take my chance despite the forecasted wet weather.
I had some time while at this rather attractive station so I decided to take a few shots. I can never work it out: Is it that designs were better and bolder in days gone by? Or is it that the effect of time helps add a soul? The supporting structure for the sheds at Paddington Station are both simple and elaborate. Try achieving this mix – in today’s straight line madness.
It’s the small things in life that offer the greatest pleasures. This morning, Yousef asked if I could help him rebuild the track for his train set. I had pleasure in saying YES for a change. He reminded me again late afternoon, when we spent the next hour or so putting every bit together.
The test run was successful and my smile was even bigger than his.
