We start at the Empire Casino and Cinema in the heart of Leicester Square and instead of taking the main streets we dip down the side streets of London for a shortcut down to Trafalgar Square where we visit Nelson's Column and the lions.
When we get to Trafalgar Square we see the world famous Trafalgar Square Pigeons, Nelson's Column, The National Gallery, Admiralty Arch, Charing Cross Station, Whitehall and even the top of Big Ben at the Houses Of Parliament in the distance.
If you visit London then you need to visit Trafalgar Square. There's just so much to do and see and you're within a really walkable distance to most of Central London's main tourist attractions.
You're only five minutes walk away from 10 Downing Street too where the British Prime Minister lives.

First-time visitors to the UK are often surprised to find that, in a day's drive, you pass through such a variety of scenery. Less than two hours south of London, the iconic white cliffs drop away to the English Channel. To the south-west, the Devon and Cornwall peninsula offers the wide-open spaces of Exmoor, Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor that contrast with ever-narrower lanes and a superb coastline. Head west from the capital and you can enjoy the gentle rolling Cotswold Hills before reaching Wales and discovering the beauty of the Gower Peninsula and Snowdonia. To the east lie the flatlands of Cambridgeshire and the Norfolk Broads, where the horizon seems endless and you can glide along the waterways in a boat, watching the rich bird-life. Cross the border into Scotland and the landscape unfolds with a seemingly infinite variety of wooded hills, heather-covered moors and lochs. The rich history of Britain's inhabitants is an integral part of this. You can visit the stupendous giant stones of Stonehenge, see brick-and-flint houses, thatched cottages, imposing castles and elegant stately homes. Meanwhile, the 21st century is firmly embraced in major centres such as Manchester, London, Birmingham, Cardiff and Glasgow, where old treasures are complemented by bold high-tech architecture. These pages reflect some of the most-visited and best-loved gems of England, Scotland and Wales. 128 very large pages very lavishly provided for with colour photos.

Sue Maclaurin Large Boxing Hares Solid Bronze Sculpture By Nelson & Forbes
Size: 15w x 21h x 13d cm & 14w x 23h x 7d cm
Edition: 250
Nelson and Forbes are pleased to introduce the magnificent bronze Large Boxing Hares sculpture (6w x 8 1/4h x 5d and 5 1/2w x 9h x 2 3/4d ) by Sue Maclaurin. Sue sculpted this piece in response to requests for collectors who love the Boxing Hares, but were looking for something a little larger.
We cast this piece by hand in aBritish foundry in a strictly limited edition of just 250 castings.
These hares take two weeks to cast and finish and is composed of two hares on separate bases that can be arranged as you wish.
It is presented in a beautiful and very high quality hand made gift box, created by our box maker in the Midlands and is accompanied by a certificate of authenticity.
The certificate was individually printed by hand from an original copper plate engraving in Hampshire, before being signed by the artist and numbered with the number of this casting. It is your guarantee that this is an original foundry casting of the sculptor's work that she has personally approved.
This bronze casting is a perfect recreation of the artist's original sculpture and was made in a Birmingham foundry. It bears the artist's signature and its own unique edition number. As every piece is cast by hand and then the mould destroyed, each one is unique and so will be very slightly different to the last.

Why Are Some UK Postboxes Gold?
I've skipped 'N' and 'O'. Although I intended to skip 'N' anyway, my video for 'O' just didn't come together and so I decided to move straight on rather than dwell / upload a bad video. I think at the end of the series I'll have an epilogue episode about the 4 letters I missed (F, I, N & O).
'A Great British Adventure' is a series of videos that have taken me all over the UK. The videos are based on the new A-Z 10p coins - they aren't videos about the coins, rather, they use them as a sort of contents page. They will be uploaded every 3 days for the next 3 months or so, although there will be some miscellaneous videos in between.

Places to see in ( Swaffham - UK )
Places to see in ( Swaffham - UK )
Swaffham is a market town and civil parish in the English county of Norfolk. The town is situated 12 miles east of King's Lynn and 31 miles west of Norwich. For the purposes of local government, the parish falls within the district of Breckland.
Its name came from Old English Swǣfa hām = the homestead of the Swabians; some of them presumably came with the Angles and Saxons. By the 14th and 15th centuries Swaffham had a flourishing sheep and wool industry As a result of this prosperity, the town has a large market place. The market cross here was built by George Walpole, 3rd Earl of Orford and presented to the town in 1783. On the top is the statue of Ceres, the Roman goddess of the harvest. About 8 km to the north of Swaffham can be found the ruins of the formerly important Castle Acre Priory and Castle Acre Castle.
On the west side of Swaffham Market Place are several old buildings which for many years housed the historic Hamond's Grammar School, as a plaque on the wall of the main building explains. The Hamond's Grammar School building latterly came to serve as the sixth form for the Hamond's High School, but that use has since ceased. Harry Carter, the grammar school's art teacher of the 1960s, was responsible for a great number of the carved village signs that are now found in many of Norfolk's towns and villages, most notably perhaps Swaffham's own sign commemorating the legendary Pedlar of Swaffham, which is in the corner of the market place just opposite the old school's gates. Carter was a distant cousin of the archaeologist and egyptologist Howard Carter who spent much of his childhood in the town.
Until 1968 it was served by Swaffham railway station on the Great Eastern Railway line from King's Lynn. Just after Swaffham, the line split into two, one branch heading south to Thetford, and the other east towards Dereham. The railways were closed as part of the Beeching Axe, though the possibility of rebuilding a direct rail link from Norwich to King's Lynn via Swaffham is occasionally raised.
The Swaffham Museum contains an exhibition on local history and local geology as well as an Egyptology room charting the life of Howard Carter.
The east-west A47 Birmingham to Great Yarmouth road now avoids the town, using a northerly bypass opened in 1981. The A1065 Mildenhall to Fakenham road still passes through the centre of the town on its north-south route, intersecting with the A47 at a grade separated junction north of the town.
Swaffham is one of the many locations for The Man Who Became Rich through a Dream folk tale (Aarne-Thompson type 1645). The tale tells of a pedlar from Swaffham who dreamed for several consecutive nights that if he waited on London Bridge he would eventually hear good news. He travelled to London, and waited for several days on the bridge. Eventually a shopkeeper asked him why he was waiting, and the man told of his dream. The shopkeeper laughed, and replied that he often dreamed that if he went to a certain orchard in Swaffham and started digging, he would find buried treasure. The pedlar returned to Swaffham, and found the treasure.
( Swaffham - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Swaffham . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Swaffham - UK
