London, UK
"... When there's hardly no day
Nor hardly no night
There's things half in shadow
And half way in light...


 

... On the rooftops of London
Coo, what a sight!"



"Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be

Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when
I shakes hands with you
Or blow me a kiss
And that's lucky too

Now as the ladder of life
Has been strung
You might think a sweep's
On the bottommost rung

Though I spends me time
In the ashes and smoke
In this whole wide world
There's no happier bloke

Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be

Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when I shakes hands with you

Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-ee!
A sweep is as lucky
As lucky can be

Chim chiminy
Chim chiminy
Chim chim cher-oo!
Good luck will rub off when I shakes hands with you

I choose me bristles with pride, yes, I do
A broom for the shaft and a brush for the flue

Up where the smoke is
All billowed and curled
'Tween pavement and stars
Is the chimney-sweep world..."

Can't get tired of this city and there's a lot more places to go to take pictures of the views...
