George Takes Rosara to Hyde Park

22 December 2001
Its that Hyde Park time of year again!

My last ever ride of Bert was this time last year on our visit to Hyde Park which has now become an annual event. Unfortunately Bert could not be with George this year, so instead Rosara tags along.

We've arrived!

This year was very funny. We stopped to give all the happy looking tourists and park police Maltesers from a big bucket I happened to have with me ... well after half a bucket I was starting to feel sick!

We found this really cute police horse ... about twice the size of George ... he (I think it was a he) took quite a fancy to the Maltesers :)

Its a shame I don't have photos of this, but we did something amazing ... ever since last year I have pontificated about riding Bert and George down Oxford Street. Well this year, we went for a progressive stroll in the direction of Oxford Street to see what would happen. To cut a short story shorter, we ended up walking down a short stretch of Oxford street from Dixons to Selfridges - On the buisest shopping day before Christmas. It was amazing!

George and Rosara were amazing. I was so impressed with them. Being stuck in traffic with busses and cars all round with 100s of tourist crowding Oxford street. I wish I could have had a picture to show for it.

There is no stopping George, he doesn't hold on ceremony. Time for a roll on Rotten Row!
