St Katharine Docks - Boat level crossing

...when a boat needs to get in or out of St Katharine Docks there are a couple of these bridges that raise (completely blocking the Thames path on this side of the docks) - complete with railway level crossing style traffic lights and drop down gates...not quite sure how I got so lucky as to be trapped by this in my extremely short time here (already)! ;)

Coffin Car...

...(complete with petrol tank full of blood!) spotted this morning while I was sat waiting for the (free) shuttle bus to whisk me from London Bridge station to the office across Tower Bridge...not quite sure what it was doing there (now the London Dungeon has moved)...maybe something to do with the Tower Bridge experience?

Royal Barge Gloriana...

...spotted in St Katherine docks the other day!

Pirate Ships?

Spotted this near the office today, might be something a certain young person might like to explore?  The Pirate Ships, not the Tobacco dock (obviously)... ;)

View from the new office!

...featuring Tower Bridge, the Thames, St Katherine's Dock, the Shard (etc.)...very nice indeed! ;)

Tunnel...

Holiday Toothpaste sorted...

...thanks to Colgate (free at London Bridge this morning)! ;)

Shame about the plant...

Crossbones Graveyard

From Wikipedia - "Excavations were conducted on the land by the Museum of London Archaeology Service between 1991 and 1998 in connection with the construction of London Underground's Jubilee Line. Southwark Council reports that the archeologists found a highly overcrowded graveyard with bodies piled on top of one another. Tests showed those buried had suffered from smallpox, tuberculosis, Paget's disease, osteoarthritis, and vitamin D deficiency", then in 1996, local writer John Constable revived the story of Cross Bones. The Southwark Mysteries is a cycle of poems and mystery plays inspired, he writes, by the spirit of a "Winchester Goose" (prostitutes licensed by the Bishop of Winchester) and "the outcast dead". The work has been performed in Shakespeare's Globe and in Southwark Cathedral. Interest generated by The Southwark Mysteries inspired the Cross Bones Halloween festival, celebrated every year since 1998 with a procession, candles and songs...
