OK, this was recorded on 20th February just after podwalk 6 but it’s been sitting “in the can” since then as I’ve been doing all sorts of other things.
You can hear me walk and talk my way from the Great Court of the British Museum over to Kingsway, down High Holborn, over Holborn viaduct into the City, along Newgate St and down Cheapside to the Bank of England – where I disappear underground. There was more, but it got boring underground (I think I was tired). By the way, this was the first time I used my Sony MZ-NH700 Hi-MD player/recorder and while I wasn’t too thrilled about it at this stage it has really come into it’s own with longer recordings – the tests I talk about in this cast were too short to show the benefit, I’m a happy user now (now if Sony could do something to speed up the transfer and conversion process, I would be a super happy bunny). Oh yeah, and I’m sorry about the intro and the lack of pics (there are 3 on flickr with the tag podwalk007).
Excellent coffee, great atmosphere, really cool music and a guy behind the bar who doesn’t really mind having his picture taken, I’m sure.
Plus free wifi for customers – way to go Ray! (contrast with Borders over the road who have a money-grubbing Starbucks wifi place on their first floor)
[Update] Well the guy didn’t say anything, but the woman (in black behind him) wasn’t too keen on me taking her photograph and popping it on my weblog without asking her permission – so I apologised, I forgot that I wasn’t really in a public place – another lesson in online living learned.
You are privileged enough to get to hear me go through my paces with Quick Lamb Curry, a midweek special, ‘cos I’ve been sick off work but back to bouncing by this evening.
Perfect Path
