I just had a meeting at the Inn the Park restaurant in St James Park. Its not too far from Downing Street, or Buckingham Palace, two places between which President Obama has been travelling.
Its funny that he and Mrs Obama should be so close geographically, yet still seem as remote to me as if they were in the White House.
I disagree – we too were in the same area and yet I felt a closeness to the Stateside pair – as they swung in through the palace gates, I could really imagine them saying to each other “can you believe this is us and we are here!” they seem more in touch with us and therefore not so remote.
