Just to show that all of the wartime memories in London have not been erased !
The picture is taken looking up into a vent (one of many) on platform 12 at Paddington station in London.
The jagged holes are all "shrapnel" damage from the numerous bombs dropped on the area, each one of these vents (to allow steam train smoke/fumes to exit the station) has a lot of damage to the brickwork from small and big fragments.
