Mile End, London: Bloody canal. There's no way across (bar swimming) between Roman Road and Mile End Road, so I've been forced out of the backstreets onto the main road. The eastbound carriageway is filled with a stream of gridlocked vehicles, honking repeatedly in a futile attempt to try to get the traffic ahead to budge. At least their headlights are working, which finally brings some much-needed illumination to my journey home. On the opposite side of the road a convoy of army vehicles is ploughing steadily towards the City, brushing other road users aside as necessary. They seem more intent on moving forward than taking control here, thankfully, but I'll be glad to cross the canal and retreat back into the shadows.
