Whitechapel, London: It's starting to get properly dark now, and the streetlamps aren't coming on. I've decided to avoid the main roads on my trek east, just to avoid patrolling officialdom, but I'm starting to wonder if these gloomy back streets are any safer. Piled-high council estates aren't the nicest places to be walking, even in normal daylight, but at least the locals seem wholly disinterested in my passing. They're scurrying around on their own urgent missions, or hurrying home to make sure their families are safe. Or at least I hope they are. A sign on the wall behind me reads "Be aware, CCTV in operation". Somehow I doubt that's true. I think I'd better walk a little faster.
