Talking of Cities...

Did I ever mention the strange woman I encountered in Toronto when I was taking pictures for a publisher? She followed me up the road as I was walking from the downtown area back to my hotel, and then ran round in front of me and pointed to my bag of equipment.

‘Is that a camera you’ve got in there?’ she asked, with just a hint of the maniac’s cackle.

‘Three, actually,’ I replied, trying hard to play the cool Englishman.

She cackled more aggressively and stuck the second finger of her right hand into the air.

‘Why don’t you spin on this and give the world a global view?’

I sometimes wonder what became of her.
