This week my London Shoes ventured out to the City of London’s ‘Square Mile’ – to do a bit of tracking down. “Sculpture in the City” is an annual art display of sculpture – that is showcased in specific streets throughout the City’s ‘Square Mile’, basically using the streets as a sort of art gallery. ...Read more...

Having been on the-Queen’s Platinum Jubilee “Corgi Trail” the other week, this week my London Shoes focused its attention on yet another animal trail – but this time the animal trail in question was nothing to do with the Queen and her Corgi’s – this trail was all about “Chimpanzee’s”….
