Monday 25th March ~ Long Cold Winter

An overcast day with a maximum temperature of 3 degrees celsius today. As Cinderella once said, it's a long cold winter. Started with a walk across Finsbury Park to catch Gemini-2 VW1298 on the W7 from Finsbury Park bus station to Crouch End Broadway. After a visit to the library I boarded Enviro400 TE927 on the 91, which I took to Upper Woburn Place. Across to Euston and I boarded Gemini VLWxxx on the 68, and took it to Aldwych. Unfortunately I neglected to get it's number! After a couple of coffees in Starbucks and a read of 'The Vatard Sisters' I found myself at Charing Cross. Enviro400 no.12146 arrived at the stop on the 15, and I took it on a slow journey to Tower Hill. Slow due to roadworks and temporary traffic lights on Fleet Street. Round the corner to Tower Gateway then for 2003 built single-decker Dart DMC42515 on the RV1, which I took to the south side of London Bridge, running via Aldgate and Fenchurch Street. Finally a dash across the road for 2002 built Gemini VLW63 on the 141, which I took to Harringay Green Lanes.
