Waterloo 200 years on


Commemorations of the 200th anniversary of the Battle at Waterloo have been taking place at the battlefield in Belgium.  Not only was there a re-enactment of the battle but there was also an interpretation of the journey taken by Major Harry Percy and Commander James White RN carrying Wellington's report to the Prince Regent that the battle was won.

The horse drawn chaise travelled from the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich to London where several more ceremonies and parades took place.

Sunday Bridges - Beneath Waterloo

A view this time from under a bridge. I think the giant coloured barcode has just appeared. Certainly I have only just noticed it.

Sunday Bridges - 3 for 1

You get not one but three bridges this week. In the foreground you can see the work taking place at Black Friars, scheduled for completion late 2011. Looking up the Thames you can see Waterloo Bridge (the ugly one) the the Jubilee pedestrian bridge (the pretty one).
