Keys

I went to the Ceremony of the Keys. Turns out that's a thing. I was loosely aware that it happened but really didn't know too much about it.

The ceremony itself was the kind of thing that Britain does well, but being in the Tower of London after closing time was brilliant. It was like being in a fairy tale. I'd been to the Tower before, a decade or so back, but really didn't remember all that much about the grounds. It was so much prettier than I remember, possibly due to the lack of bodies. I spent the evening wandering round with a big, old, uncynical grin on.
