TAFKARM Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 Im heading into central London on Saturday morning, just for a bit of fun. Planning on arriving at 6am for sunrise and then drive round take a few pictures while the place is quiet. Im sure someone on the forum has organised somethng like this before (its where i got the idea to be honest) Anyone care to suggest a route / some good stopping points and photo ops?

Pistol Pete Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 The Essex crew did this a couple of years ago, my advice would be do the west end first (gets busy) then head to the city where its dead at the weekend. Stopping places: Outside lloyds is good outside the old willis building opposite the tower if london watch your speed and enjou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 A drive through Hyde park for the tourists to take photos of you and round Buck House/Constitution Hill. Across Tower Bridge (careful there, it's only 20mph). Try and plan a circular route with the sights Pete and I suggest ending up at Docklands.

alexander72 Posted April 15, 2014 Share Posted April 15, 2014 I would do Three Lords in Minories, The Lamb At Leadenhall, The Coal Hole on the Strand, The Rivoli Bar at the Ritz, James J Fox Cigar Merchants in Picadilly, Joseph Trickers in Jermyn Street, the Fox club on Clarges St for dinner…. That used to me my day at work :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon besant Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 What about the low emission zone?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Pete Posted April 16, 2014 Share Posted April 16, 2014 What about the low emission zone?? only for hgv and not in force at weekends, so not an issue. You need to do it while you/we are still allowed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wile E. Coyote Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Sure speed won't be the order of the day, but watch out for cameras in the Limehouse tunnel if you head out to Canary Wharf. There's one that must make a fortune as it looks like the limit should be higher than it is... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pistol Pete Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Come on, wheres the photos and write up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Colonial Posted April 23, 2014 Share Posted April 23, 2014 Come on, wheres the photos and write up? I hope they save that for the next issue of WW, which has a copy deadline in about 3 weeks - and I suspect shots are being saved for the Westfield Photo of the Year Competition!

TAFKARM Posted April 23, 2014 Author Share Posted April 23, 2014 I doubt it's worthy of a WW write up! I'll update the thread a bit later this evening.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
