Westminster Bridge, London
Dear Flickr friends. My absence due to major surgery will continue for a few more weeks whilst I recover. Those of you whom I know better are aware of my illness and I thank you all for your wonderful and kind good wishes. I am well on the road to a full and complete recovery.
I have broken my cyber silence to post this image, which, today, is most poignant.
It is WESTMINSTER BRIDGE, on a wonderful day in 2015, shot from the top of the London Eye.
I post it today in defiance to terrorism globally and in my Country.
Today innocent children and people were mown down on this very bridge by a terrorist who took the lives of some and catastrophically destroyed the lives of others, as well as those who love them.
A brave police officer was also stabbed to death whilst trying to apprehend this misguided murdering terrorist. The officer tried to stop him without using his weapon and paid for it with his life.
This is a beautiful bridge in my beautiful City and I, along with my fellow Brits, will never let terrorism define us. We carried on with our stiff upper lip after July 7th attacks over a decade ago and we will do the same now.
This photo represents the bridge as it will be, again, in a couple of days. It will be full of people, buses, taxies, tourists and cars. We will never give in to this.
Sympathies and condolences go to all those who on March 22nd 2017 in central London, had their lives lost or destroyed.
