The Greenwich Phantom: Advent Window Number Seven

Advent Window Number Seven

This one looks intringuing. I was walking along the Five Foot Walk from The Trafalgar to Bellot's Obelisk a few days ago when I saw someone doing something rather mysterious with one of the ground floor windows in the NE corner of The Old Royal Naval College (Queen Anne Court.) It was only this morning that it occurred to me it must have been in preparation for 4.00pm today when they'll be officially opening Greenwich University's window with music, mince pies and mulled wine.

The theme is - highly appropriately - I Saw Three Ships... I'm surprised they manage to see that many these days...

About Me

Name: The Greenwich Phantom

Location: Greenwich, London, United Kingdom

Greenwich is one of the coolest "uncool" places there is in London. It's not profoundly unfashionable - rather somewhere where it doesn't occur to people that there is anything more than a few museums, a nice park and the Cutty Sark. The really adventurous might know about the Trafalgar Tavern or venture out to Greenwich market on a Sunday afternoon, but essentially, Greenwich is still relatively undiscovered for one of the great regions of London. I adore Greenwich - but I'm not blind to its faults either. In this journal I take an affectionate but honest - at times brutally so - look, giving my own personal low-down on the things to do - and one or two of the things NOT to do in Greenwich. I am being unashamedly parochial here. I will talk about the tourist sites, of course - how could I not when we have a World Heritage Site on our doorstep - but also about the things which make our town great - the little things. Interesting vistas, cool shops, bizarre novelties and quirky one-offs which make this place buzz. Greetings, by the way, to all of you who have travelled with me from Livejournal - and thank you for making the journey.
