However I was merely pointing out that whether or not the carriages were nice and empty as they were in your case, would presumably depend on the time of day your journey was made. So that without any such information, your otherwise helpful suggestion that others might care to follow your example, is of very little use I'm afraid. I went into town about 12.30 and came back around 2.30. At one point I literally had an entire piccadilly line train to myself apart from the driver. It was quite bizarre. Thanks. Although with everything closed, presumably, it would probably be quite frustrating walking around with nowhere to go except maybe the odd supermarket. Maybe Sainsburys on TCR or Tesco in Googe St frinstance. I was taking pictures of the lockdown plus having an nice walk through the backstreets of the west end and mayfair. |

What *would* be useful at any time, would be the ability to take pictures of streets, buildings, etc. without the intrusive presence of parked cars everywhere. Along with too much street furniture, about which nothing can be done of course. Traffic (and pedestrians) can be largely avoided by starting at 5.a.m. in summer time; although that then presents the problem of having all the trees in full leaf. michael adams .... |
