Centre Point, London : /lamp post/

/Only in ultra-nationalistic Britain.../ [Imagine-t-on cela ailleurs ?]

/The Union Jack as a Unique Selling Point. I wonder what can be specifically British in a sex shop. Do Brits do sex shops better? I should imagine they are the same everywhere. Or perhaps sex shops are a particularly British phenomenon? Or perhaps this is just a call to buy specifically British whatever-it-is-people-buy-in-sex-shops - they may not seel anything foreign. I am perplexed. If you have seen sex-shops proudly displaying their nationality anywhere else in the world, let me know./

Facehunter /in the city/ Yvan Rodic, London

/I was walking down around Covent Garden, a place where I never go, and saw four pictures of the Facehunter's book in the windows of a local bookshop (what with this being London where local shops are nearly extinct, it was probably a bookstore chain) to advertise his book. As some of you may know, I like taking pictures of shopwindows, of reflections in the city, and Facehunter (one of the street-style-paparazzi bloggers) mostly 'hunts' [et dévisage] in London (or so it seems), this was a perfect opportunity to take a couple of pictures et blog them, really./

/I never succeeded in taking a good picture of the relatively new National Library, by Oscar Niemeyer again. I thought I should still include these two shots of the library and the panorama - they may not be very good but at least, they are informative and show the building as it is and where it is./
