I am fond of Piccadilly and often spend time in Shepherd Market when in London. For the first time, last week, I looked up at Stratton House on Piccadilly and saw these plaques. They were unveiled on the building by the then Dutch Prime Minister, Jan Peter Balkenende, watched by grandsons of Winston Churchill and Pieter Gerbrandy, on 29 October 2005. I must have walked past them many times, blind to their existence. Last week, thankfully, I looked up.
