Abandoned CDs
My blogs cover exotic objects found on the street (Abandoned CDs, Abandoned London, Abandoned Tickets) and in charity shops (Charity Shop Diary). They also detail the books I enjoy (London Reader), the plays and DVDs I see (I Went to the Theatre..., Man Watches Film), and the walks I have taken (Totteridge Walker).
