part of the view from the south bank
a curious incident
an usher came out of the queen elizabeth hall to insist that "tripods are not allowed !"
yet there is no sign forbidding them
he threatened to call security because i was unwilling to comply
H. G. Wells, The War of The Worlds, they're still worried.
