The chief business of the day was visit to the Barbican Centre with Evie, her parents, and her other grandmother to see a performance of My Neighbour Totoro. It was a great delight and even if you haven’t got a handy child about you, if you get the opportunity to see it, I would suggest that you should go.
We passed a well known building on our way . . .
. . . crossed the river . . .
. . . and got a hard stare from a carving at Holborn Viaduct.

I’m envious of your theatre visit. I had read a review of the play, and have hoped that, as it’s by the Royal Shakespeare Company, it night be livestreamed some time. Or am I getting muddled with the National Theatre? Anyway, I can but hope.
My Neighbor Totoro has been on my list for quite a while.
That is a very hard stare indeed – perhaps he disapproves of the theatre.
I too enjoyed the hard stare never having noticed it before.
I hadn’t heard about Totoro. Glad it was so enjoyable.
Memories for me
Can’t help thinking that the staring head seems to have swallowed a small man, and left his trousered legs sticking out. That building is familiar, didn’t it once adorn the label of HP Sauce?
Hope you are enjoying yourselves.
You are right. I knew I had seen it somewhere before.
I looked up “My Neighbor Totoro. I think I would enjoy it too.
