If you Google “parks in Clerkenwell”, you won’t get a lot of hits. It’s not the greenest part of London. If you Google “St James’ Churchyard”, well we’ll get to that. For now, let’s not spoil the innocence of a … Continue reading →

Posted on August 17, 2012 by katese11

Brockwell Park take 2 – 10/08/12

Posted on August 10, 2012 by katese11

It’s always risky to go back to old hurts. You just know you’re opening yourself to being hurt again, just like every time Rachel forgives Ross only to be once again told that they were on a break. Heart-wrenching stuff. … Continue reading →
