The Anonymous Widower

Allez Les Bleus

I went to Trafalgar Square to see the new installation on the Fourth Plinth.

I was not impressed and I think it’s one of the post pointless pieces of art, I’ve seen since Carl Andre’s bricks or Equivalent VIII.

One point, is that my late wife would have hated it, as she hated live chickens with a passion. She felt they were OK though when they were dead and cooked on a plate.

It’s a bit crass to put a symbol of France in a square to commemorate one of Britain’s bigger victories over France.  At least the England France rugby international in 2014 is taking place in Paris and hopefully this silly object will be gone by the time of the 2015 encounter.

One thing I did notice and that is there is only one clock in Trafalgar Square and that is on St. Martin-in-the-Fields.

Perhaps we need a properly designed clock on the Fourth Plinth!
