36.


London  express. Nueve años después, 48 horas en la capital en la que si no miras al lado contrario corres el riesgo de ser atropellado. Dos días intensos rememorando algunas de las primeras vivencias de juventud.


Viejos conocidos: Abarrotadas Oxford y Regent, epicentros del turisteo y el consumismo a gran escala.
Y por supuesto la interminable y colorida Portobello.




Mercadillos repletos de lo que en mis tiempos era segunda mano, ahora conocido como vintage, puestos y olores callejeros, gente y más gente y ambiente prenavideño.



 Un paseo por el este para descubrir nuevas zonas en auge, Brick Lane, Spitafields... y quedarse con sabor a poco.


 ¡Que no pasen tantos años, por favor!
 London calling...

    Now if you can stand I would like to take you by the hand, yeah
    And go for a walk past people as they go to work.
    Oh, let's get out of this place before they tell us that we've just died.
    Move, move quick, you've gotta move.
    Come on it's through, come on it's time.
    Oh look at you, you,you're looking so confused just what did you lose?
    If you can make an order could you get me one.
    Two sugars would be great 'cos I'm fading fast and it's nearly dawn.
    If they knocked down this place, this place, it'd still look much better than you.
    Move, move quick, you've gotta move.
    Come on it's through, come on it's time.
    Oh look at you, you, you're looking so confused, what did you lose?
    Oh, it's ok it's just your mind.
    If we get through this alive I'll meet you next week, same place, same time.
    Oh move, move quick you've gotta move.
    Come on it's through, come on it's time.
    Oh look at you, you, you're looking so confused, what did you lose?
    That's what you get from clubbing it.
    You can't go home and go to bed because it hasn't worn off yet
    And now it's morning there's only one place we can go.
    It's around the corner in Soho where other broken people go. Let's go.

  3. Como me ha gustado tu post. Me ha hecho viajar en el tiempo por espacio de unos minutos. En los 90 no había año en que no ve diera "una vuelta" por la city. Hace por lo menos 5 años que no voy y ya me lo pide el cuerpo ¡a gritos!
