5 October 2014 ~ Old London Road

Listening to:  Leon Russell ~ Back to the Island


Old London Road is located near the Kingston Train and Bus Stations and has quaint and eclectic shops.

One of the more unusual sights in Kingston is several disused red telephone boxes that have been tipped up to lean against one another in an arrangement resembling dominoes. The sculpture by David Mach was commissioned in 1988 and is called Out of Order, and was described by the author as "anti-minimalist".

Last Saturday was a boat race in Richmond, and this boat happened to wonder down to Kingston.

Quite ornate decorations.

And the boat master was fiddling with his camera, but did wave tot he crowd every so often.
