Probably during summer so the sun will just be fresh in the sky. Christ, can you imagine how magical that would be? I want to do that.

You see those adverts for BA (I think) with the guy in a bed in the middle of piccadilly when there is no-one else there, I always wonder how they managed to do them; whether they actually cleared the whole square of just CGIed the people out.

My favorite time of day is when theres no one around. There something nicer about being on your own, even more so when your alone in nature. Neither of these things is possible in cities. Parks are often overcrowded, and are only a reminder of the corruption of concrete all around you. I’ve not lived in an urban area for any period of my life, but I can say I don’t want to.
