Now that I live in the peace and quiet of the Welsh countryside, a journey back to metropolitan England can be quite a shock to the system. Nottingham seems busier than ever – and none the worse for that. It would be great to spend a little more time there and to explore some new things about the city. Fascinating to see lots of “living statue” style buskers on a Saturday – including this fellow who had a huge crowd around him. Now, where can i get my hands on ears like those?
