NOV 26, around and about: London, UK

  a) Review of material posted on November 26 in previous years ...


2020: non-sequitur, dishwasher (illustrated poem)  
2021: death and afterlife, heavenly pie (illustrated poem)
2022: non-sequitur, changes in latitude (poem) 
2023: magic palindromes, more from Paris (wordplay)

To access the details of any item in slide format, type its title, as displayed above in red font (e.g. ... heavenly pie), into one of the two search bars at the the top of your blog-page. Underneath the slides for each entertaining delight that you discover, you will find a clickable link that lets you easily explore a more widespread collection of wonderments (verse, photos, wordplay, song-lyrics etc.) on the topic of your choice.

Editors' Note: An important photo, moments after the above scene was captured, is NOT available (cell-phone not extracted from pocket): As we were walking down Great Ormond Street, at the construction zone for the hospital expansion, a fox ran by. We hope to  arrange a followup photo-shoot opportunity on a subsequent visit to the UK.
