Paddington Bear at Paddington Station

As an aside, 'Eros' is actually the christian angel of charity rather than the greek god. He did use to face Shaftesbury Avenue, but now faces Lower Regent Street. Also, the arrow that he carries points downwards, as if to bury the shaft (shafts-bury, get it?) - maybe it wasn't such an appalling pun when the Eros statue was originally designed! |
