Truro, Cornwall. I thought downtown Truro deserved another airing!

H. A. N. W. E. everyone!
The spire of Truro Cathedral can be seen.
Victoria Square; normally a busy town centre but, as I was waiting for the bus to take me back to my car at the park and ride, I suddenly noticed that a providential traffic lights arrangement had made the traffic vanish, so I whipped out my ... mobile phone!

Amelia, yes indeed!
Carol, I was very surprised to be suddenly confronted with no traffic. 10 seconds before and it was petrol city!

Stunning !! It happened to me once on the peripheric way around Paris. No car on the opposite side. This was just a president who was visiting France and they had blocked the traffic just for him !!!!
