Afternoon WW how are you mate? 🤔Wonderful Rainy ☔London Night Walk here in this fantastic city in the world which is the best city here in 2023! Cheers for sharing this walk & hope to see a new Premier from you soon mate! 👍😀ɢʙ
Love this ambience ☔️
A great night for a walk through London on a rainy
night and all the buildings and the light blue sky in
the early evening and I like to look at the buildings
not necessarily on crowded streets that much.
But I like watching your videos just for the look
at the city though, oh i saw the Watched Walker
truck and Thank You.
📹📱🚶🚶🚶🚶📱📹
As usual, here for the visual ASMR! 👏🏽
Watching this now whilst doing my 1 hour workout on the stationary bike at home WW. I have a proper TV screen with remote in front of the bike. I'm currently at around 9 mins with the Three Greyhounds pub and Chatmeals. The Three Greyhounds half timbered building reminds me of Liberty's which I know you've also filmed.
Mum and I are also getting ready to go away for three nights starting Friday, returning home on Monday. Partly to attend the RHS Spring Fair at Malvern Three Counties Showground. It's a huge show and we went last year. We will stay near Birmingham NEC. Although it's an hour away from the show, we are going to be exploring Birmingham City centre a bit more. Been before and it's surprisingly impressive. Just the library alone is something and the city has more canals than Venice. It's just a matter of taking the train from the NEC to the çity centre. About 20 mins. Anyhow Thank You for this video. I've now got to 14:37 and Leicester Square underground station entrance.
I dont know if it may be digitally enhanced, but that thumbnail is beautiful
👍
Canadian High Commission at 25:35. Can't help getting a warm and fuzzy feeling seeing multiple large Canadian flags flying. Thank you for filming along "Ibrahim Avenue" Watched Walker.🇨🇦 🇨🇦. Actually, you've reminded me,I need to renew my Canadian passport soon.It expires in July though I don't intend to go back to Vancouver until the New Year. My UK passport is good till 2027. Sidenote: Dual citizen Canadians can only enter Canada on their Canadian passport. I would actually be refused entry on my UK passport and yet my Mum who is not Canadian, would be able to enter Canada on her UK passport. This is a relatively new rule that came into effect a few years ago…and has caught out many Canadians living outside of Canada. 🇨🇦
Northumberland Avenue is where mum and I catch the London bus Christmas lights tour, just off Trafalgar Square. We will be doing that again in a few months. There's always a sizeable Christma market in Trafalgar Square at the time, with the Canadian High Commission just across the street.
Most…Conspicuous…Logo…Ever
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Picadilly advertising light hordings, like the big red Coca Cola sign used to be a treat to film and photograph. But since they went and changed them all to digital/LED, then it's virtually impossible to get great pictures at Piccadilly Circus. The lighting is overpowering. So not surprising our good cameraman W.W steered clear of the Circus.
But for sure, the wet pavements make a pretty London picture just after the rain.
My first thought, when I would arrive home from a cold , wet walk like this, would be "holy crap, I need something to warm me up". How great it is to sometimes live vicariously!!
Thanks for making the WW logo so clear on Charing Cross Rd – even I spotted it 😂😊! Great walk and reflections
Thank you so much!❤
these walks have been getting me thru now that i can no longer walk. ( i need hip surgery, but have to lose weight, before they will perform the surgery) so i visualize myself walking with you. i miss walking soo badly. everyday is a challenge.
I saw it 1:07 watched Walker hey everybody hope all is well we all are over here your friend Cindy
Que guapo es Londres y que ambiente!!!❤❤❤
The lights look so pretty during and after the rain, thank you. Saw the 3 WW logos, the 2nd one was large and bold.
Thank you for this great walk. Nice to follow this rainy walk from home. I saw two logos. One of them was impossible to miss! I smiled when I saw it!
You are a really good sport doing these rain walks for us , because we LOVE them. Since it rains so much in London , you should put the logo on a brolly sometime. 🙂 NANCY
Man, I’m telling you…these videos give me life!!!! They are absolutely the next best thing to actually being there in my beloved London. I miss walking those awesome streets with my husband. I really need to get back there but in the meantime, I have these amazing videos to tide me over until I can step foot back onto British soil. Thank you for braving the elements to do this. Much love from the United States (Philadelphia Pa)💜🇺🇸💜🇬🇧💜🇺🇸💜🇬🇧💜🇺🇸🇬🇧🥨🥨🥨
Olaf wishes to raise a point of order here. It distinctly describes you logos as being "hidden" in the videos. That one in Charing Cross Road is so big and loud that it hardly fits the description. Olaf is wondering if WW is playing a game with us? Noooo – surely not!
The Watched Walker on that truck looked like the company had it painted on !
Awesome
A nice thought, I think. The large logo.
Hola WW. Hermosa noche lluviosa en Londres. Siempre llego un poco tarde, pero llego. Calidad exquisita, se siente estar allí, vi los logos de WW, disfruto plenamente de tu hermosa ciudad, la conocí en 2018 y como la mayoría de las personas, quede fascinada. Muchas gracias WW por permitirme a través de tus hermosos videos poder seguir disfrutando de Londres. La próxima uso el traductor y escribo en ingles. Soy la única que escribe en español. 🥰
02 shopping mall tour
Wait what anyone noticed that truck
Very nice walk in the rain very often.
the streets are very shiny between the lights and the reflections on the sidewalks.
The Arches Shopping were quiet!!.
I saw the Noël Coward theater too, which is very well known.
Very pleasant walk.
Thank you friend WW for making us discover London.
😀😀😀😀😀
Moving here in two years from NYC.. can’t wait 😮💨
Brilliant video, had a laugh when I seen the shop called Duck World. Nothing but rubber ducks, great. 13:17
