Nobody walking along the pavement January 21
I looked out of the window. There was no-one walking along the pavement. All of the people must have been somewhere else. The next time I looked out of the window the pavement was still deserted.

Looking out of the window December 6
I decided to stop what I was doing for a minute or two and look out of the window. Nothing much was happening outside, but I decided to carry on looking for a couple of minutes anyway. When this time had elapsed I turned away from the window and continued my other activities.

That helmet looks good! Beautiful pictures. By the way the special ops guy with the banner made me think that there are fewer and fewer places in which one can wave a flag. Maybe it will take tobe in a situation like that to wave it to our heart's delight.Thanks for sharing!
