The Angel, Islington Is Now Clean and Tidy

This picture shows how islington have cleaned up the Angel.

The New Pavements at the Angel

It must have impressed the BBC as they conducted interviews for BBC Breakfast one day last week on the pavements on the opposite side of the road to this picture.

Just before I took this picture, I had bumped into a person of the female gender, who had just got off the same 38 bus as I had. I won’t call her a young lady, as she’d debussed (does it have one s or two?) and immediately stopped to light up her cigarette.  As I was close behind her, I walked straight into her.  I apologised profusely, but got a mouthful.  Whereupon I told her that she should stop smoking, as it will eventually kill her! Possibly it will be sooner than I think, as she immediately wandered in front of the 38 bus to cross to Islington Green.  Luckily for her the driver was paying attention to the lights, which had turned red.

It must be very disheartening for the council, as the pavements were already covered with discarded cigarette ends and chewing gum.
