"And did those feet in ancient time / walk upon England's mountains... brown"


Blake's Jerusalem will need to be rewritten if current climate conditions persist.  The photo shows Hyde Park this summer (from a gallery at BBC.  Another gallery here).  I really don't want to see photos of Kew...

    Most recent and selected "green".
    Even when we have no rain for a while ground-water is still normally fairly high.

    1. That's good to hear. Many years ago I spent a 6-month sabbatical in London, living in Chiswick but spending as much free time as possible walking the paths and houses at Kew.
