Notting Hill Carnival, band on float
Some floats have sound systems, some like this one have bands. This is in Kensal Road, with floats just coming onto the main carnival route, so the crowds are not dense here.

Ducks in the muck
It's not the ducks that are mucky and fortunately they don't seem deterred by the state of the canal in this area - it's not a pleasant sight.

Emslie Horniman Pleasance
In 1911 Emslie J.Horniman (C.1865-c.1944), tea-merchant, Liberal MP, philanthropist and anthropologist (hence the Horniman Museum to house his collection) donated an acre of land for the benefit of the poor in this deprived parish to be used as a public garden and open space "dedicated in perpetuity to the people of London as a recreation-ground. I propose to clear the land and lay out same at my own expense." He employed the architect Charles Voysey to create a formal garden. See http://www.londongardenstrust.org/features/voysey2006.htm

The 'pleasance' deteriorated over the years but was rescued and restored in the 1990s with several new features. It also also the starting point for the Notting Hill Carnival.
