Yesterdays News

Yesterdays News:

Yesterday I went to Londonium with my parents and saw many a thing. Part of London's Architecture Week someone thought it would be a great idea to attempt to heard sheep from Southwark Cathedral all the way via Tate Modern and across the wobbly bridge to Smithfield Market.
When I got to Southwark Cathedral there was a great crowd of people from the posh ponce to the tourist, as well as a small group of animal rights protestors saying that it was "Medieval Slaughter". However, some of these protestors were wearing leather shoes and they were next to food market that was actually selling meats, dairy produce as well as many other foods so why wern't they causing a fuss in there?
The sheep really did need a good shearing though and it was too hot to heard them really, but i dont think they were going to be slaughtered at the market, as they looked far too old and looked like they had been rented from a farm.

The Worshipful Butchers (The ones dressed oddly):

The Humans become the sheep, as they follow the real sheep in large numbers:

Anywho the sheep looked a bit bored with me taking photos of them so we went to Borough Market, which in my opinion is one of the best London markets especially if you are like me and are obsessed with eating food :-D It has food produce bought from all over europe and Britain and you can sample most foods for free.
