Disabled argue with police at Oxford Circus protest
I’ve finally decided that January has ended and that I’ve put all the work that I’m going to post for it on My London Diary. I’ve mentioned most of the stories on here before, but here’s the set of links for the month so you can go directly to any of them.

Although they may look slightly different because of a different style-sheet, these are the links that are on the left of the January 2012 page. If you use Firefox they conveniently stay fixed when you scroll down the page, but I’ve never managed to get Internet Explorer to do that – and there are other minor differences between how the two browsers display things. It sometimes annoys me, but never enough to get me actually trying to solve the problem, and I notice quite a few sites where similar things happen.
At a stupid trivia quiz on Saturday I couldn’t even remember that Egypt has a bird on its flag!
I’ve been deliberately trying to cut down on work a little, and to start catching up with things – like scanning my work from the 1970s, and also wanted to get work on My London Diary rather faster than I had been doing. I’ve had some success – after all it’s only a few days into February and I noticed the other day I still haven’t managed to post my pictures for October 2002 – and there are a few other gaps in the diary elsewhere too.
February will of course follow shortly!
