When my cable box is in standby mode, it displays a screen saver. This basically consists of a number of different images from across the world, interspersed with ads for the cable service. So imagine my surprise when I encountered the following image:
Of all the places in all the world, the last thing I expected to see was a view from my hometown! However, my delight was somewhat mitigated by the fact that I have no idea what river this is and I have no idea where this shot was taken from (since that looks like the viaduct in the background, I would guess it's the River Lea in the Meads). Oh well, it's still nice to randomly encounter Hertford like this - a town I may have lived in for 18 years, but which I'll probably never visit again now that my family has moved away.
