[Leica] Abbey Road

[hopsternew at gmail.com (Geoff Hopkinson)]

And to add a little whimsy, the crossing currently marked on that road is
not actually at the original location. Someone forgot to inform the traffic
authorities of its sacred status. Like someone moved Stonehenge a couple of
kilometres closer to the pilgrimage bus stop!

Cheers
Geoff
