London Walks

I found these illustrated walks on the Guardian website. Check them out there, they are a bit difficult to make out on my blog. I have done the Tate to Tate walk but find the Highgate one quite intriguing. I have been there once before, but realised I need to go again after reading Audrey Niffenegger's "Fearful Symmetry", which is basically all about the cemetery and some of its inhabitants and neigbours. It is a captivating place, and after having visited the resting places of quite a few famous people, one starts looking at other graves and wonders about their history .... and stories then do come easily ...
