I was always under the impression that London ON was jsut a giant suburb.

jeeff: 30th May 2006 - 02:56 GMT

yeah, it's mostly suburban in character, but there are still a few gems to be found even in suburbia.

technically london is too far west to be considered a suburb of toronto; it's a regional centre of southwestern ontario.

that's a nice looking thames. does it start in an oxford as well as our one in the other other london? (the one that is too far east tto be considered a suburb of toronto)

I like those stairs. I wonder if they are in use. They look like they are in rough shape.
A friend of mine in Seoul used to live in an apt that had a really steep and narrow set of stairs up to the roof. When I would climb them I felt like I was in danger. One there there was a strong wind and they came down. Apparently they weren't even bolted to the wall. scary shit indeed.

Cool, the other river thames in the other london. Nice photos jeeff. Roll on tomorrow when my adsl line kicks in. This page took me 5mins to load!

chia: i think the stairs at the back of our house are about to collapse but they're only wood.

the source of our thames is a muddy field somewhere here: www.thamespilot.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=thames&f=generic_theme%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&%3dtheme_record_id=tp%2dtp%2dsourcetosea_thameshead&s=OQjUtR4WVi3 but beyond that initial confusion nothing like as complex as the tributaries that make up the source of yours
