On one hand obsessed with the most superficial nonsense and quite capable of the most ruthless selfishness and on the other quite prepared to rush into a burning building to save a stranger (well, theoretically in my case)<br /><br />The Charles I statue is interesting though- it sits right next to the actual official centre of London (which is marked by a small usually un-noticed plaque in the paving). After Charles lost his head it was removed and thought lost or melted down but found again and replaced by his son after the restoration.clerkenwell kidhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15252849232777734394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12981649.post-80617569217298824322010-02-23T15:58:36.584+00:002010-02-23T15:58:36.584+00:00better the small hero than the half-truth poseur o...better the small hero than the half-truth poseur on the stallionGwil Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03305768121713053837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12981649.post-76899276071795108232010-02-23T11:47:51.052+00:002010-02-23T11:47:51.052+00:00Ah, so many things worth seeing in London, so litt...Ah, so many things worth seeing in London, so little time each time I have a chance to visit.
