Sheep In London
OW the mist’s lifting and the sun pushing through a bit more you can just see the Arch, and the ghostly outlines of Park Lane running all down that side to Hyde Park Corner. What are you staring at? No-you’re not crazyit’s true, they’re sheep you can see. They graze anywhere in the Park but you're more likely to come upon them this end. That’s one of the American jokes against us, you know-" The Londoners possess, in a narrow strip of green running along one side of Park Lane, the most valuable building site in the world, and they graze sheep on it!" Of course
we do! —
