After Arnhem I flew hazily into London Heathrow from where I braved the underground/sauna and finally came up for air to find a sun blazing down on a semi-nude populace and the final leg of this brief journey saw me traipsing greasy and sweating through up-market Russell Square, Chinese tourists galore, to my pad in London University's halls of residence, Chinese tourists galore, just round the corner from Great Ormond Street children's hospital, opposite which was a delightful park, green and lush, with towering trees, nesting boxes, scampering squirrels, snuffling dogs, vaguely jogging humans and a couple of local likely lads who sold me some weed ... so I sat there on a bench, puffing away, before setting off on a London adventure ... It's all about the rain - see below. Oops! Uploading clips to this site is problematic, so what you should see here is London Calling by The Clash, one of the world's best ever songs! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfK-WX2pa8c
