The next excellent place is in a car, on the motorway at about 3am. Most of the joy of motoring has vanished with the rush hour and the Model T. Personally I long for the day when petrol prices make it impossible for poor people to run a car. Then, the thrill of the open road will be experienced again for those with money, and we shall again experience the joy of driving through muddy puddles just to splash the lower orders. Car ownership should be an automatic bar to any claim for social security benefits in my opinion.
But, though congestion has ruined most driving experience, 3am on the motorway is still a good place to be. Just you, and a few truckers and graveyard slot radio.
