Stratford Station in London.

Stratford station is a major point for switching between the London Underground, the Liverpool Street to Southend line; and more recently the Eurostar link to Paris.

I like Stratford, I have been a regular visitor here for many years. With the Olympics coming in six years, it can only get better.

It really can be as quite as this, although not very often. This picture is taken as I head off away from the shopping centre, where all the locals are, and up the High Street, which most locals would drive as it is a very busy highway. The person in the picture is not me, he is walking towards the station!

Next, take a look up & down the Stratford High Street

A very strong recommendation for a Gas Safe engineer in Essex is N R Heating who fixed several gas leaks in my home today. The work was very professional, totally committed to safety and quality; plus the price was very competitive. New boiler installation was also another brilliant service. A very high class recommendation for a Gas Safe Engineer in Hornchurch.
