Something Old, Something New

It’s usually something old on here so, for a change, here’s something new; talking statues. The first one I saw was Queen Victoria in Kensington Gardens.

Put in the link and she talks to you on your ‘phone. You need to be beside the statue to get the link but you can cheat and hear an example  by entering www.speak2.co/Sherlock. Try entering it on your ‘phone, press Go and wait for Sherlock Holmes to call you.

There are twenty-three of these statues in London and more in Manchester and Chicago. L S Lowry, Sir John Barbirolli, Alan Turing and Abraham Lincoln et al are in Manchester.
