Just SE London, just my route, or just me last night?
Riding home, there were visible airborne nasties absolutely everywhere. Swirls of dust in the gutter. Trees dropping seeds, leaves, buds, et al.
It was awful. I passed some poor cyclist at Peckham, tears streaming down her face, sneezing like fury. I was utterly blocked up, had to stop at Lewisham to seek refuge in the shopping centre.
By the time I was home, my hands were black from rubbing my eyes. Lovely wife waiting in the doorway with tissues which I instantly turned to soot.
What the hell was going on?
