Here's a selection of photos from my London rambles that I've just slappen up on my blog. Those Covent Garden performers are *weird!*. http://www.urban75.org/blog/covent-garden-photos-market-and-curious-street-artists/ http://www.urban75.org/blog/london-waterloo-bridge-centre-point-and-road-works/ http://www.urban75.org/blog/battle-of-britain-airplane-flypast-over-london-remembers-the-blitz/
I took some more pics on Saturday. This guy was actually rather entertaining. http://www.urban75.org/blog/half-naked-unicycling-knife-juggling-street-performer-covent-garden/
He's definitely more original than the living statues around Covent Garden tube. Also slightly disturbing but in a good way, unlike dressing up as Charlie Chaplin.

You're a brave man going to Covent Garden. Chronic tourist infestation and overpriced pubs. Only Leicester Square is worse.
In my limited experienced of both places, you are far less likely to be bothered by drunken oafs in Camdem. Plus the area is a lot easier on the eye than that soulless shithole.
I used to have my studio just round the corner from Camden Market. I got bothered by drunken oafs on an almost daily basis.
