I’ve finally finished uploading my photos to my new SmugMug gallery. It has just about every photo I’ve taken over the past eight years, so have a browse!
Swiss Re
Last Wednesday we had lunch at 30 St Mary Axe, otherwise known as the Gherkin. Designed by Foster and Partners, it is the second tallest building in the City and one of my favourite London buildings. For years I’ve been meaning to see inside on one of the London Open House days so I was
