So on today’s TfL map walk, I saw the North Korean embassy, a mock Tudor McDonalds, some great Tube architecture, a load of planes, and a bunch of other stuff too. matsimpson.com/2026/...

The North Korean embassy is in a regular looking suburban house. They have a basketball hoop in their back garden.
