On arrival on the heath.19:38:54
I initially headed to the top of Parliament Hill, thinking it would either be empty or populated with other people similiarly disinterested in the sportsing.19:43:54
...which was the case for a while at least.19:48:38
....although eventually some idiot came and sat on one of the benches and to watch the kickety ball on his phone, with the loudspeaker on.
19:58:35
So I eventually decided to head to quieter parts of the heath.20:01:35
Which was a bit of a shame as the view of the city was quite nice this evening.20:03:53
Even though it was a while before sunset I liked these pink hints in the sky.20:03:59
20:04:32
I think this one came out quite well.20:07:05
Anyway, I eventually couldn't stand having to listen to the sportsy inanity on that guy's phone so I headed off to elsewhere on the heath. Here's a squirrel.20:53:55
...happily much quieter by the barrow. It stated to rain a bit while I was sitting here which was nice - I was sheltered by this tree overhead and the sound of the raindrops dripping off the leaves was lovely.21:08:59
I cleaned one of my brogues a bit with a dock leaf.
21:10:02
The bench next to where I'd been sitting.21:13:01
Heading back through the trees. Nice and quiet here as well, just the sound of birdsong.21:18:36
Me looking quite pleased at escaping the madness.21:24:08
Empty on top of Parliament Hill now - the rain must have driven them away.
21:24:16
London by night.21:24:42
21:26:45
Those irritating people who had been listening to the sportsing on a phone also left their litter behind. Awful.21:28:38
Seemed like an odd place to leave one of those rental bikes.
21:33:52
Heading back past the bandstand.21:41:00
A fox on the way home.22:08:08
Unfortunately the madness was still continuing when I returned home so I sought some solace in the garden.22:38:30
Some leftover generic Burgundy from the other day. Surprisingly not bad.
