February 7......



'The Old and the New.
St Paul's Cathedral and No.1 New Change sparkle in the sunlight of a gloriously beautiful, but bitterly cold London winters morning.

St Paul's






''Occupy'' protestors on the steps of St Paul's since October 15, 2011


Protestors gabble


A bitterly cold morning has it's impact on attendance at the morning forum

More sensible garble. Or not.

Mmmmm...

It takes all sorts to make up the fabric of society

Ahhhh so you do want a bonus.


The scene - Unemployed banker enroute to a meeting with recruitment firm takes time out prior to interview to scope the landscape around St Paul's Cathedral which has become a meeting point for the ''Occupy'' movement. Stops momentarily to read a manifesto of sorts that is pinned on the outside of a protestors tent. Moments later he is joined by a protestor exiting a tent who sidles up next to Unemployed Banker. Small change in atmospheric pressure. Unemployed Banker dressed for recruitment meeting. Protestor dressed to protest. 

Protestor - ''Not a bad manifesto eh ?''
Unemployed Banker - ''Err nope and half intelligent as well''
Protestor - (Looks Banker up and down) '' You a banker? ''
Banker - ''Err nope. I am unemployed''
Protestor - Cynically laden..''You don't look unemployed''
Unemployed Banker - '' What about you?''
Protestor - ''I am an architect ''
Unemployed Banker - '' Well there you go''
Protestor - ''Well there you go what ?''
Unemployed Banker - ''Well there you go. Looks can be deceiving. You don't look like an architect''
Protestor - '' What does an architect look like ?''
Unemployed Banker - '' Not like you ''
Protestor - '' Mmmmmm''. Grunt. ''Mumble mumble mumble '' and walks away.
