London, following the lead of other European cities, has opened a playground just for the elderly - folks 60 and over. In Hyde Park i'm sure the vast majority of Fodorites will qalify to enter and play to their hearts delights.
In fact this IMO would be a great place for a London GTG - Flanner could be in charge, as usual. JJ could hop over from Sac'to.
Anyway something to look up if dawdling in Hyde Park.
