The local dead

One thing I love about this place is that social reformer who, after the Fire of London, suggested using green space as fire breaks. The story I've heard is that they dug up a bunch of people (but I assume that's wrong) and turned cemeteries into parks. In churchyards, and parks, all over the gravestones are pushed to the side and you have some really nice parks.

Went to one at lunch. Sat down. Thought to myself how pleasant and wonderful the it was to be in the sun. Then a cloud passed over and it started snowing. No one budged, well, one woman put on a hat. Cleared up, and then it really started snowing. The hat lady left. The rest of us enjoyed the weather.
