27 Apr 11 Walking in Chiswick

I always enjoy strolling along the Chiswick High Road.

A great variety of stores and stalls along here, from major national, and international chains, to small family run independents. I could spend many hours walking around here, and always find something new.

If you get tired of walking, on a fine day you may care to sit for a while on one of the many benches in the area, or go sit in Turnham Green. Alternatively hop on one of the many frequent buses when you’ve had enough, and go to many other areas of either suburban or central London.

There are many places to eat and drink. Traditional English pubs, European style bistros, and brassieres, to Asian Cuisine, there is surely something for everyone’s taste and pocket.

Craig Brown, aged 20, was shot to death in a West London street on Christmas Eve after returning from a shopping trip.

He was pronounced dead at the scene by paramedics from the London Ambulance Service

His attackers shot him before making off on foot. The Metropolitan Police are dealing with the murder as part of Operation Trident -  who are a police team dedicated to investigating gun crime within the black community.

Teen crime as a whole has been in the rise in recent years in the UK,  much of it gang-related, and committed with knives or guns.  More than 70 teenagers have been murdered as a result of violent crime in the UK in 2008
