Some more coloured pages from my Sherlock & London Graphic Novel. The project has been going on for several years and will probably take some more. More info here:
Because the story of the graphic novel is about John sending Sherlock on a treasure hunt through London on his birthday, it also fits with this month’s @sherlockchallenge : Game

Little Venice London (In Explore) by Roy Llowarch Via Flickr: London's Little Venice is a tranquil canal area, home to waterside cafes and pubs. Enjoy a stroll along pretty streets and take a relaxing boat trip to ZSL London Zoo or Camden Town. Little Venice bears no resemblance to Venice in Italy but is a lovely area of London to go walking on a beautiful day. These photos were taken in June 2018 with my Canon DSLR camera and I have downsized them because they were huge.

London Canal Museum, Kings Cross
A trip to the London Canal Museum - a fascinating little museum near King’s Cross that looks at the history of canal and details the lives of people who worked and lived on them
Tumblr media
Horses feature heavily because of their key role in pulling barges
Tumblr media
Later small tugs pulled barges through tunnels, replacing the need for barge men to use their legs to push against the side of the tunnel to move through
People lived in tiny cramped cabins on the barges. Whole families would grow up here
Tumblr media
People also made their livings around the canal. One of the worst jobs was sifting rubbish piles for anything that was recyclable and sellable. The people doing this suffered great discrimination.
Tumblr media
The canals, threatened with infill when they weren’t needed for transporting, would later be rescued as places for leisure, sport, wildlife and even living on. This is the Camden Lock Market which started as craft workshops in 1972. Campaigners saved many miles of canal from being lost.

The tiny terrace and mooring at the back of the museum, only accessible through the museum

Day 1018 - a walk along some East London canals
The Flying Kipper was the name of a boat spotted on the Regent’s Canal. However, as all true fans of Thomas the Tank Engine will tell you, the Flying Kipper was actually the name of a train of fish trucks pulled by Henry the Green Engine. Therefore it is strange to see a blue boat named carrying this name!
