HAPPY BIRTHDAY SCOOP!

MANY MANY HAPPY MOONBASE RETURNS SCOOP!

The Return Of Scoop

Just got back from a few days of R & R up the Smoke so I thought I'd better do a bit of catch up.

Not had chance to check out Wote’s new story yet but it’s on the agenda. I see Rocket Punch has reached a 5000 mile service - that’s a lot of hits, nice one William. The Sword Annual post by Woodsy also pricked my interest. (b.t.w. Ed, don’t bother with a Thunderbird annual from the nineties - stick to the sixties ones! )

Anyway, back to the return of Scoop. First off I thought I’d share a few of my snapshots with you.

 

This is a view from Westminster bridge showing a corner of the London Eye. It certainly is a colourful city at night - The future is now!

We came across a good natured and peaceful demo in Trafalgar Square. As it was November 5^th loads of people were getting ready to recreate the climax from the film V For Vendetta and march towards Parliament - Now you don’t see that everyday.

If anybody is interested they didn’t actually blow the Houses of Parliament up, although the authorities weren’t taking any chances judging by the police presence.

The Science Museum was a must for me, especially the Space section.

We bought a couple of souvenirs to remind us of the trip. A lovely snow globe showing a London bus.

And I couldn’t visit the capital without buying these two Moebius Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea kits! I’ve been meaning to pick up these kit’s since I did that post on Voyage a while back and when I saw them in a London model shop I thought why not!

 

All in all, it’s a great city full of great things and great people - they even named a shop after me!!

Wotcher!
