It’s August bank holiday so it must be…. manky weather, but also, of course, the famous Tooting Chariot Festival, which starts off right at the end of our street, and ends up on Figgs Marsh. And so, a little Bank Holiday in Tooting gallery, as a celebration. Like good Tooting citizens, we started with the chariot procession, moved on to the vast car-boot sale at Wimbledon stadium, then to Figgs Marsh, then to Morden Hall park for tea, and ended up just in time to get soaked at the Tooting Common funfair, which had almost more staff than visitors.
And if Figgs Marsh isn’t exotic enough for you, you can read Daniel Jones’s Taipei blog which has just gone up, chronicling his trip to Taiwan with ENB.
