The Bloom Bar

This is the prettier half of a pair of Georgian shop fronts in South Woodford High Road. The other one is a Financial Advisor's office. I see this place everyday and I always thought, "I'll do it another day." Which is the problem when something seems so accessible; there is always another chance. So, last Thursday, on my way home, I used up the last sheet of my Fabriano A5.

Bus Stop H

Not the most inspiring title I know but it is true. After two visits to Waitrose in South Woodford, I had justified two large blue milk lattes and a chocolate torsade. This is the little group of higgledy piggledy buildings on view from the new 'bar' area by the check outs. Much nicer to be able to set up shop, sitting down.

Well, almost. I thought I'd go local again, with my first love, the 0.5 HB clutch. I remember listening to Ken Howard a while ago saying, "You don't have to go to Venice." Yes I know he did, and he has a studio there but mine is my living room, in South Woodford.
