Location, Location, Location

Have you ever discovered something rather trivial that has given you more a thrill than it should?

Well this little map has done just that!

Slow Horses is on the horizon so I’ve been rewatching the old series.  Being nosy – I wondered – is that really a place in london so thanks to google maps street view – I discovered that yes it is!  There the Italian restaurant Vecchio Parioli and just beyond is the walkway – number 123 – where Slough House is supposed to be based.

Anyway – as I looked at the map a bit more, I glimpsed a familiar name – Florian Court!  The setting used as home to the estimable Hercule Poirot – Whitehaven Mansions!

I will absolutely put my hand up and say this absolutely thrilled me!  No idea why – but I just thought that it was great that these two locations were virtually back to back. Also Yes I know “absolutely” is getting used too much but like WOW!
