20 years ago: England in May

Horses somewhere between London and Cambridge, closer to Cambridge than to London.


Regent's Park, London. The pigeons got to share a turkey sandwich with us, but one pigeon unexpectedly flipped a piece of turkey onto his or her back. The others were left to ponder the situation:  "Just how peckish are we feeling at the moment?"

Einstein disguised not as Robin Hood (re: Desolation Row by Bob Dylan) but as somebody's pissed off grandmother with a mustache. This is a Madame Tussaud wax figure in the lobby of the London Planetarium,  which is now part of Madame Tussaud's and no longer a planetarium.  The show we saw there in May of 1996 was as underwhelming as this likeness of Einstein. We can hope they've got a better wax figure of Albert now.
