After the flood

Merton High Street is still closed to traffic at our end. This with the warm weather has brought on a strange village feel to the area. For the first time since I have lived here I can hear children playing outside our flat. People are stopping to chat to one another. The local businesses are all trying to recover their stock and throw out what is ruined and they are all out on the street chatting. The eradication of the traffic noise is just blissful. Long may it last!
