Pirating Printing and Art Deco

 

We're having ANOTHER day out today!!!

We got a bus to the train station.....

And got a window seat!!  Hurrah!

And we're off!!

Wonder where we're going today?

Ooo there's Millwall Football stadium!

We got off at London Bridge station and used the facilities - we left them a CD!

On the way out, we found a decorated giant marble!!

And we're heading off!

We left another CD here for someone to find!

Aha!!  Here's our bus stop!

BUS BINGO ALERT!!!  We got the number 35!

We left them a tag!

.....and we're on our way!

We got off here at Camberwell Green!!

We're heading off to meet some people to go pirate printing!!

We found some interesting manhole covers on the way!

And this is the one we're printing off!!

We made this print on some of our ice-dyed fabric

And we made this print on some eco-dyed fabric
The other people printing two T-shirts and a Tote bag and we were all really happy!

After we said goodbye, we had a little wander round and found some more manhole covers

I think we saw this one last time we were in Camberwell


And this is our next bus stop!

BUS BINGO ALERT!!! We got the 185!!

We tied a tag onto the rail.

And we're off!

We crossed over the Thames

We got off at the last stop by Victoria Station and headed off to find somewhere for lunch.

AHA!!!  We've eaten here before!!

Ooo.... oooo yum..... yeah let's eat here!!

We got a table upstairs and got a beer!

And we ordered chicken schnitzel with a salady thing on top and a mayo dip and some fries.
That'll do nicely thank you!!

Then we headed off for the next bus stop!

Essentially back the way we came, to this bus stop here!!

BUS BINGO ALERT!!  We got the number 2!!

They got a tag as well!!

Ooo there's Constitution Hill!!

We're going up Park Lane now!

There's the war memorial....

And Marble Arch!!

And we're heading up here....

And got off at Marylebone station!  We had to walk back down to the main road and we left a CD on this railing.

And left a beer mat on this railing!!

AND THEN..... we looked over the road and saw THIS building!!!
It's that art deco building that we've ridden past on the bus a stack of times!!!

It's Dorset House..... built in 1935 I think.

Very expensive to live in.

But it's lovely to look at!


We've seen a 6th floor 3 bed 2 bath flat on the market for £1,250,000 and a 2 bed 1 bath flat on the market for £750,000.  Looking at the pictures, all the flats are painted in the same neutral grey and none of them have paintings up on the walls.  

Totally.  Bare.  Walls.
But the outside is very pretty!










We went all the way round the building....

And then headed to the bus stop right outside on the main road!

BUS BINGO ALERT!!  We got the number 18!

They got a tag as well!

That's Madame Tussauds....

Spot the bus....!!

We got off at the last stop at Euston Station.

We left another CD on this railing.

And walked along a bit further past the British Library

They've got an expedition on we'd like to see, but not today.  We're both rather pooped from this weekends' activities!!

So we're heading back home!

We used the facilities again and left this CD here.

And found a yellow taxi cab!!

We've got a bit of a wait for our train, today.  That's OK.....!!

We still managed to get a window seat!

Here we are at Blackfriars Station!

There's the Shard over there!!

We headed towards London Bridge station

And later on, crossed the Balcombe Viaduct

And here we are back at Brighton!!!

There was a bus arrived just as we got outside so we whizzed over and got straight on!!

And we got off at the last stop!!
What a fun day out!!!
