Countdown Clock

Some early (and warm) spring sunshine and coloured shirts (some football, others not so) around the Olympic Clock can brighten up what can be a very gloomy and dull Trafalgar Square, as these images show.

Two recent days with sunshine - must be a record for London. How do I know there were two days ? No, not by the date on the shirt - rather the days remaining to the Olympics reads 152 on the Clock in the bottom image and then 137 in the top three....
