Hertford waking on a Sunday morning.
I had the pleasure of watching Hertford slowly come to life this morning. It reminded me of some of the reasons why I live in Hertford.

Yep....for all of the bad things said about various places in Hertfordshire, and for the negativity regarding The Stonehouse, Hertford is a lovely place to live.....very happy here :-)

Where abouts were you watching? Add in a bit of the historical side (ie the buildings)and guess I'd agree.

I commonly see Hertford waking on a Sunday morning but that's usually because my lifestyle has dictated that I haven't been to bed yet.

I guess you weren't waking up on Bengeo Street, with diggers and workmen as far as the eye can see from 7am... or on The Wash where they're also digging up the road. Great planning BTW - 2 lots of roadworks in Hertford on the same day...

Three lots they were digging up Fore St by M&S too at 9am! Seems only minor though as didn't last long.

I was in and about town for a while and in several locations.
I think it was the mix of people that charmed me. The Hitchin cyclists with their bikes piled up outside Barney's Grill while various characters came and went to and from Caffe Nero. The odd one or two people who had obviously not been home yet after their Saturday night out. The family who were off to town after buying tickets for the circus. The man painting The Lord Haig. The look in the eyes of the dog as it lay by a table outside the Rose cafe. And repeatedly spotting the venerable Sloop And Mrs Sloop![:)]

Most probably vaulting roadside barriers to take down banners. Not a trick often undertaken by Mrs Sloop.
