The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 10/03/2026It's National Pie & Mash week so popped up to Camden to give my support to one of my favourites. Pies are top drawer, the mash always a lovely consistency, lots of parsley in the liquor. And the chilli vinegar is 🔥. £5-75 for a plate of steaming hot traditional London grub. Lovely jubbly 👌 040

The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Ethno-nationalists like Yaxley-Lennon and Farage hate the messaging from films like Paddington.

The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 14/12/2025Another brilliant weekend in my city. Didn't even need a stab vest. Ventured all around, which I do all the time, and it's all same as it ever was. London is rocking. The Tommy Robinson fascists don't like hearing this, though. #London 1100

The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 14/02/2025Always enjoy stopping and watching this clock for a couple of minutes. Then everyone else stops and looks up and does the same as me, getting their phones out to film. #London #walking 251

The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 13/02/2025Well that was magnificent. Soaring tunes, choreographed beautifully and several absolutely mesmerising 'pas de deux' throughout, the final one in Act III had the house hypnotised for 20 minutes, it was magical. Sensational production. The opera and ballet ticked, I guess I need to read the book now. 020
The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 13/02/2025Back in Covent Garden tonight for Tchaikovsky's much lesser known ballet 'Onegin'. This is the famous and much loved 1965 production choreographed by John Cranko for the Stuggart Ballet, based on the opera of 1879, which was itself based on the book by Pushkin of 1833. #London #ballet #opera 140

The Lambeth Walker @thelambethwalker.bsky.social · 12/02/2025Hidden in plain sight, a piece of #London #history. Vincent Street Fireplace in Westminster. Once part of the cosy interior of a terraced house, bombed in WWII. Today it is outside the gates of a modern block of flats. I do think a plaque should be added to explain it's significance. #walking 180
