TASTES OF LONDON

On the wall of a corridor in the Autism Research Centre I spotted this map:

While this map keeps to the style and appearance of the current London Underground Map, my other two offerings are rather different – one is a variation on the regular map which uses smoother curves and gentler angles, and the other shows what might have been had the Romans developed underground railways…

I am branch secretary of NAS West Norfolk and #actuallyautistic (diagnosed 10 years ago at the comparatively advanced age of 31). I am a keen photographer, so that most of my own posts contain photos. I am a keen cricket fan and often write about that subject. I also focus a lot on politics and on nature.
