Going home North up Hampstead Road in London.
Pedestrian crossing lights ahead go red. There's a small gust of wind and a kid's helium balloon drifts slowly across the road. Lights go green
The balloon was weighted so it bobbed at just the height a child might carry it. For all the world it looked like an invisible kid was using the crossing.
Only other person to see it was the bloke walking on the pavement to my left - we both looked at each other incredulously and carried on our way.
THIS is why I need a camera on my bike
