The jewel in the crown of Samizdata.net
A blog for people with a critically rational individualist perspective. We are developing the social individualist meta-context for the future. From the very serious to the extremely frivolous... lets see what is on the mind of the Samizdata people.

Samizdata, derived from Samizdat /n. a system of clandestine publication of banned literature in the USSR

Window shopping near Wembley
Brian Micklethwait (London)  How very odd!

One of my hobbies is photographing landmarks, but in the course of doing this, I spot other less landmarky things, and snap them too. That was the origin of this photo:

It was taken in Harrow, which I visited not long ago, to photograph the new and I think magnificent Wembley football stadium.

Click to see more clothing graphics. Very Samizdata, I hope you agree. Apart, maybe, from where it says John Lennon.

Quick Question for Samizdata: Why use the eye of providence as your logo? And what do the variations of the symbol mean? I know it probably has something to do with "Big Brother," but I would like to know more about these symbols.... Thanks

The new Wembley's a monster. It looks as if this one is taken from Docklands. Look just to the right of the Swiss Re building.
