I hope he used a humane trap…

I met this chap last December during a Photowalk along London’s Regent Street and Oxford Street. The roads had been closed for a special Christmas shopping day and it was interesting to walk along streets that we know so well but in a way that we don’t normally see them. The bigger shops had street entertainers to draw shoppers in, this guy was one of Hamley’s offerings. I think he was supposed to be the Pied Piper of Hamlin based on his rats – but I don’t think he would entice me into a shop, rather make me run away to avoid the creepiness.
