Palatial

Didn't sleep at all well last night despite my well appointed accommodation. There was a high speed car chase at about 03:30, sirens and lights, tyres screeching and me suddenly a member of the wide awake club. Intermittently dozed until about 06:00 so decided to get up and wander down to the Palace. An overcast morning but still quite warm for the time of year, especially at this hour.
