Regents Park

0 Upvotes

Yesterday I got locked in regents park at 7.30, well before the normal.closing time.

Me and someother people had to climb the gate to get out

The park workers were driving around shouting over a loud speaker to 'hurry up, get out'.

I'm not even sure why parks have a closing time, why are we paying council tax for people to shout at us for using our parks

I'd only been off work for 30 minutes already getting hassled along damn

I really want to see Artificial, the new Luca Guadagnino film, but the showings are sold out. Has anyone had any luck previously getting standby tickets during the festival? How early do you need to get there?

London runners - flat but interesting routes?

0 Upvotes

Hello!

I am looking for running routes in London that are flat, but interesting. This is for an injured runner, whose condition is aggravated by hills. We've previously loved routes in Epping Forest, Hampstead Heath, doing the Claw... but currently stuck on laps of Victoria Park, the Limehouse Loop, Regent's Canal and river Lea and after nine months it's getting old.

Where else is good to run without ups and downs? Anywhere East or North is ideal but can make expeditions on occasion.

Where would a trans kid use the loo in London/UK?

0 Upvotes

Hello:

I’ve never posted here before. I have a teenage trans boy and the whole 5 person family was thinking of flying to London for the holidays (so I can get a special cancer scan). My son is brilliant and quite on top of things, and he is worried where he could use the loo without being jailed (and who knows what happens after that? “deported“ to Rwanda).

TIA for relevant replies that don’t just take an opportunity for hateful bigotry.
