I went to watch for a couple of hours, on the A23 just south of Crawley. Didn't take any pics this year - have a look at last year's, they'll be exactly the same.... ;)
Some people are like Slinkies - they serve no useful purpose, but they still bring a smile to your face when you push them downstairs.

I went to Hyde Park first thing and then headed down to Birdcage Walk/Parliament Square/Westminster Bridge. Previously I'd normally hung around near Hyde Park corner and Buck Palace so my photos look a little different this year ;)
