Independence Day ride around London 3rd July

[Aperitif]

Good job I didn't wander up to the zoo - with my jersey on, they might have locked me up!

"Yis, Comrade Dodo, exspecially as you vere not wearink zebra underneath ze jersey." Actually, after Mark's interesting discourse about model airplanes etc at the Sloppy Sausage, or whatever it was called, I was thinking about a model 'Flying Dodo' - I have seen a swan at Black Park on the lake there being 'driven' across the water - it can only be a short hop to dodo to life!

But surely the Dodo was flightless.

You'll have to do some waddling modelling.

Thank you Adam, for an inspired notion for a London pootle on a beautiful morning.
Thank you all for the company.
Especially as I've absorbed some useful material I can use for a USA-based radio show I'm doing tomorrow evening.
For example, I'd completely forgotten Benjamin Franklin invented lightning…

 

[Flying Dodo]

You missed out on a lot of other stuff I made up but didn't waffle on about found on the internet.

Hope the show goes OK.

I'll be thinking of our American friends tomorrow:-

Further to the Simon Bolivar bit, I mentioned the Orchestra in passing yesterday - here they are with two minutes of power play!

Nice to have a country named after you I suppose.

Exactly! That's why there needs to be one in the air. Don't misspel Dodo though Mark, it wouldn't do to have 'Flying Doodoo' buzzing around - would it?

I think this may be why those grumpy workmen wouldnt let us through Grosvenor Square. Happy Independence Day y'all.
