Was a lovely, sunny, still, morning in London and I had a very pleasant run in. Around Hyde Park passed two sets of the household cavalry exercising horses.
Tonight on the way home the weather had turned a bit muggy and the traffic, particularly east of Park Lane and across Oxford Street, was very heavy.
Nearly ran into the back of a car which stopped in the middle of the road as it's owner was lost and then got held up at the Abbey Road ped crossing as various japanese tourists did the "Abbey Road" beatles picture. Ah well, summer is here!
