Hard to believe but this morning I was faster than a 4 legged creature!
Having been distracted by gallery exhibitions and glasses of champagne my resolve to run after work had been well and truly scuppered this week. So virtuous behaviour this morning – pulled on my runners and set off to St James’ Park, past the Queens city pad and into Green Park.
To my absolute delight the Horse Guards were rounding the corner, in their lovely red cloaks and on beautiful horses, swords aloft heading up the Mall to do their version of Changing of the Guards. They are my absolute favourites.
Thinking that it would be pretty cool to run along side them – I was amazed that I was faster! But was pleased that this meant I could stop every now and then to let them catch up (well to catch my breath!).
You do have to love these little London suprises, that can occur at any moment.
