Lovely London

 Jumping around a bit here but Cynthia and John's Wedding Anniversary is soon(ish) and I want to post this while I can.  Some of you know how much I love Halloween so I was a bit miffed to miss out on the activities on offer at Oriel y Parc in St Davids - especially the Coracle Making, actually.

Cynthia and John picked me up from David and Frances' house on 29th October and we drove to their house in Watford.  With only one day to go before I flew out to Singapore, we spent 30th October visiting Catherine, their daughter, at work at Burgess Park (nearly wrote Bletchley Park there - the heat is disorienting me...).  To my mind, Catherine has a dream job and is Site Manager for this wonderfully reclaimed piece of land.  I got to see the pumpkin carving workshop in action.

 

Mother and child photographed with permission of course.
I'm assuming I have Cynthia, John and Catherine's consent - they seemed happy to pose...

 

 

Catherine's office. Palpitations.

You can just see the Eye to the left of the above photo.  That's how central this park is.

 

Then imagine my joy when I saw a fox who proceeded us to the Community Garden where we were heading.

A glorious day.  Then home by buses and trains.  Elementary really.

 I love public art touches like this, and celebrations of place.

I flew out on Halloween.  Unfortunately they made us keep the window blinds down so I don't know which wild ones were flying beside us.
