        Cheers Laurie. I visited London in 1997, an intriguing city.

          Daft thing is Joe that in the fifties & early sixties I worked in London & used to go thro Hyde Park Corner on a motor bike 3 times a week.

          Going Thursday to see my youngest son. Will enjoy seeing him but not London. 7 years was enough.

            Thank gentlemen, that's definitely the place. I knew I knew that sculpture , I must have walked past it a few times!

            Now all I need to do is find out what those blokes with the banner are doing. I think they might just be some German delegation or team. We tend to forget that as of 1933 that flag was simply the national flag of Germany and they do seem also to have a placard with Germany written on it in English. I'm thinking of some kind of opening ceremony or exhibition, maybe in Hyde Park.

            Cheers

              Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe the picture on the right is the exact same building. If you search for "jersey charing cross clock tower" you will find a few more pictures. Regards, Gary
