Of course, there\u2019s a well-known park on the way, I\u2019m reliably informed, wherein folk are wont to eat sandwiches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/embed?pb=!1m28!1m12!1m3!1d9933.500447682753!2d-0.1501023170147012!3d51.50633379900707!2m3!1f0!2f0!3f0!3m2!1i1024!2i768!4f13.1!4m13!3e6!4m5!1s0x4876053babf9a839%3A0x7de7f5b3d180ebcd!2sSt%20Paul&#39;s%2C%20Knightsbridge%2C%20Wilton%20Place%2C%20London!3m2!1d51.5014678!2d-0.15594349999999998!4m5!1s0x487604cc111583fd%3A0x130cb0ec85d22df8!2sSt%20Paul%E2%80%99s%20Church%20Covent%20Garden%2C%20Bedford%20St%2C%20London%20WC2E%209ED!3m2!1d51.5115492!2d-0.1237595!5e0!3m2!1sen!2suk!4v1762704367220!5m2!1sen!2suk\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" style=\"border:0;\" allowfullscreen=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\"><\/iframe>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_bbp_topic_count":0,"_bbp_reply_count":0,"_bbp_total_topic_count":0,"_bbp_total_reply_count":0,"_bbp_voice_count":0,"_bbp_anonymous_reply_count":0,"_bbp_topic_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_reply_count_hidden":0,"_bbp_forum_subforum_count":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[12],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-9959","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9959","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9959"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9959\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9962,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9959\/revisions\/9962"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9959"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9959"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sslso.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9959"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
