Monty, purveyor of fur balls since 1993, resplendant in his Dilton Arse flower pot

London: the Wobbly Footbridge over the Thames, with some old church in the background

London: standing among the Groundlings watching Romeo and Juliet at the reconstituted Globe Theatre

Nunney festival, Wiltshire - a bit o' traditional British village life. You can just make out the crappy little 14th century castle at the back...

Lyme Regis : what British summer would be complete without a wet 'n' windy visit to the seaside?

Nerd heaven at Bovington Camp Tank Museum: the Freudian symbolism is poking you in the eye!

Helsinki market: cockney banter Finland style

Helsinki's Lutheran Cathedral (Martin was out when we called)

Jugendstil houses in Helsinki. Or was that Art Deco? Er...

A bloke with a bird on his head ;-)

The wonderfully attired Mr.Radloff on Suomenlinna Island, Helsinki Bay

Fire!

No, not a Rothko painting, it's actually the corner of a nice old Swedish building on Suomenlinna Island

The Vikings are coming! Get that submarine into the water!

Our hotel. Not really, it's just one of them open air ethnographic museum thingies, that's all

No, the camera was level - it's the whacky buildings that are wonky. Building standards in the town of Porvoo were obviously a bit lax in the past...

Some innocent bystanders get caught in the shooting in Porvoo's Old Town

Sundays in Porvoo were hard to get through...
Rovaniemi's tacky Santa Park helpfully pointing out our location. Thanks.

The midnight sun - at 10pm... ;-)

Santa's house at the Arctic Circle. No, really, I saw him.

On to Berlin, and one of the bits that isn't either covered in scaffolding or totally filthy

A bizzare and somewhat grotesque installation in Berlin's Jewish Museum - you are invited to step on these loudly clanging metal faces...

The home of the 1936 Olympic Games, now with most of the Nazi bits toned down

The Reichstag complete with new glass dome where visitors can throw rubbish onto their MPs below

In Potsdam - a kind of small tree thingy

Potsdam - a far cry from the dirty depressing Berlin suburbs...

Sundays in Berlin were hard to get through...

And back to London, where it's getting noticeably cleaner with bits like this stuff in Paternoster Square

Hampton Court, of Henry VIII fame, and we end our little photographic peregrination.
