some of my recent talks
Open your eyes to the everyday
How many times have you driven past Hyde Park Corner, Marble Arch and not noticed anything about it apart from the traffic? We have all "done" the major sights in London, particularly with visiting relatives, but what about all the over looked bits? Sonia Davies, a British Culture teacher is giving a series of three talks to open your eyes to the everyday.
The three talks are on Marble Arch, Hyde Park Corner and Trafalgar Square - deliberately picked because they are rather over-looked. You'll get a 360 degree tour and learn the history and some of the quirky facts.
Where is No 1 London? Where is the "centre of London"? What was the first guitar on the wall of the Hard Rock Cafe? If nothing else it'll make for great quiz questions!
It's not a serious talk, it's a whimsical, interesting hour-long wander in the company of a Londoner who loves her city. And afterwards, after lockdown, you can download a recording of the talk and go and see for yourself what I'm talking about.
