Early Saturday we took a train down to that London.<\/p>\n

We arrived in St Pancras International where a small selection of ordinary punters amazed and astounded us as they sat at the public pianos and showed what they could do.<\/p>\n

My favourite was the young guy who played a variation of the first movement of Mike Oldfield’s Tubular Bells.<\/p>\n

Then\u00a0we took a tube to Hyde Park Corner where we joined up with a big bunch of like-minded people on what was a lovely sunny afternoon.<\/p>\n

We stood about for a bit. Then moved onto some parkland where we sat down and I most definitely did not fall asleep,<\/p>\n

After a while that was an age and also not an age, we\u00a0(eventually) walked from the foot of Park Lane to Whitehall.<\/p>\n

When we’d finished with all that we walked to Covent Garden where, amongst the trendy eateries and hipster drinkeries we found a proper pub.<\/p>\n

A pint of cider shandy, half a pint of cider, a small dry white wine, and a diet coke which cost the wallet-robbing amount of…<\/p>\n

\u00a320!<\/p>\n

Have a word with yourself London. That’s bonkersly mad.<\/p>\n

Anyway.<\/p>\n

It was the most overtly political day of my life, and that day was all the better because there were four of us, marching as a family.<\/p>\n

Here are just a few photos (but between us, we took dozens):<\/p>\n
