No Parking, Yes Parking!












Parks of London.....peppered around the city, huge - and very diverse! Need I add, mostly Free - never an unimportant consideration.

So a sunny Saturday afternoon spent on a long walk with Anita through Oxford street ( frightfully crowded with pedestrians) , Marble Arch and into a corner of Hyde Park....and then the vast, vast expanse of Hyde Park...big enough for a plane to land!

Let the pictures tell the tale. The Serpentine is a nice sight, along with a Serpentine Cafe and a modernistic Serpentine Gallery too - with a winding pathway to the top fora birds eye view of the gallery!

And a return throght Knightsbridge!! And the glamorous show windows!

I have referred to the Serpentine, Hyde Park and the Strand in my book on Patna. By importing these names to Patna they were trying to beat nostalgia and make a home away from home.
