The laughing policeman

The first Sunday in February is when all the clowns arrive in East London for the annual service to honour Joseph Grimaldi (1778 – 1837), the greatest British clown (More here, if you're interested).

I got my timings wrong (as per usual) and arrived at Holy Trinity, Hoxton 'way to early'. I tentatively knocked on the door to ask when the service started and was invited in and had lunch with about forty clowns. A surreal and wonderful experience ...
