This is where I'm staying

Most of my friends reading this would know about 'my' Pods. The Pods are large packets of seeds on a tree in Lexham Mews, Earls Court, London- a little area that has a big place in my heart for no particular reason. Well the tree (which you can just about discern in this photo) outside the Visitors' Accommodation here is the same type (I think!) except everything about it is bigger, and the pods are giant! The Gambians let them fall off and dry, and then use them as percussion instruments. That's why there is a pile of them on the ground- you can see that too, in the bottom left corner.
