The start in Hyde Park was awful. The pack went off much more quickly than usual, catching out a lot of people, and without the usual police car to stop the traffic, so the group was broken into four parts. The usual road by which they emerge on to Westminster Bridge was closed because of that shower of morons shouting abuse at each other. Here we got lucky when I suggested we go to Forum Magnum Square. Packed. Could have had a field day if we'd got their earlier and left later. Got them going over Waterloo Bridge and a small handful from the bottom of Constitution Hill but it was all over by then and a large number of the snappers missed them.
Definitely giving Brighton a miss after today's debacle.

Actually it wasn't their fault, the Police had to block off the Mall due to the Free Tommy supporters, it did turn into a bit of a riot today, I saw loads of Police vehicles racing down the Mall, I guess they told the Marshalls to divert the ride down Piccadilly. I briefly saw the lefties but they were low in number and 'kettled' away from the Free Tommy lot. Anyway enough of the politics. let's get back to naked ladies!
