    My favourite aspect is the headlights of cars being reflected in the wet streets. It's a weirdly comforting distortion.

    That was great Watched Walker. I particularly loved the reflections of light in the rain soaked streets as well as recognizing several places which have now become comfortably familiar through your videos. In particular, Leceister Square, Chinatown and Covent Garden. I also loved the various narrow cobbled streets...and of course interacting with many familiar names in the Live Chat. Anyhow, stay dry and see you soon!
