Follow the umbrella

Occasionally in London I'll do something 'touristy' - it's a global city which get loads of visitors and sometimes those of us who live here forget why people visit. Today was one of those days.

I've driven round Hyde Park corner numerous times but I've never actually visited Wellington Arch or No 1 London. Both are fascinating in their own way but the real gems are the monuments around the arch, especially the New Zealand and Australian ones.


To make me feel like a tourist I happened to be there as the guards made their way through the arch.

To make me feel like I live here I bumped into some people I knew on the escalator at Hyde Park tube station!
