Paddington Station - Morning
Paddington Bear greets me sculpted in bronze,
All around me lies the gateway to the West Country and Wales,
Paddington Station, a hub of commuters, travellers, holidaymakers and chaos,
Coffee and food stalls gaining from big profits and sales.
My walking adventure in Berkshire beckons near,
I sit in contemplation sipping a Cappuccino from the comfort of my bench seat,
Early morning at Paddington station is never dull,
Pidgeons encircling me and pecking away by my feet.

Did Paddington share his marmalade sandwiches?
A lovely scene 🙂
Hello sylviasearcher,
He might have done. I probably missed his sandwich sharing session when we met.
Thanks for reading.

Paddington has so much changed since the days when I worked at the newly opened maternity unit at St Marys - great read FB
Hello Michael,
Many thanks.
I have only ever used Paddington Station, the nearby area is very much unknown territory to me waiting to be explored one day

Paddington was the last station I went to a couple of years ago, it is the station where we arrive from the West Midlands. I was going to the Albert Hall and after the afternoon concert walked back to it via Hyde Park.
