I've got something rather similar, but different. I've just been to London
for the first time in my life. I was looking for Kensington Park, which KT
mentions in Lionheart: "Peter Pan steals the kids from Kensington Park" or
something like that. Well, I could not find any Kensington Park, but there
is a Kensington GARDENS, and in that Gardens is a statue of Peter Pan. Was
she just mistaken, do some people in London just call it Park in stead of
Gardens, or is Kensington Park a mixture of KENSINGTON Gardens and Hyde
PARK (just besides each other), or is there an other reason?

Ben.
