Fvded In The Park was recently announced. It is an annual music festival at Holland Park in Surrey. It’s one of the more exciting things that happen at Holland Park. If you’ve ever passed by it, you’ve probably noticed how dull it looks.

These are only mere observations so take what I say with a grain of salt. When I was a child, my dad and I were waiting for my mom at King George station. We decided to kill some time by taking a walk through Holland Park. I don’t know why my dad thought about doing it but I just went along. It was pretty nice…for the first ten seconds. After that, it became a carnival of boredom. There weren’t enough trees, bushes, and other plants to make the scenery worth looking at. Sure, there are a few stone sculptures and water fountains but nothing to write home about. It was also pretty long for something that was super monotonous. Unlike something like Surrey Lake Park where you get up and downhill sections, cool animals, and the occasional golf ball, Holland Park looks dry in comparison. After one round, I thought it was over. Nope, instead, my dad decided it was a good idea to do one more round. If you thought the first round was bad, wait until you do a second round. It is significantly worse than the first time around. You have to experience the same boring route all over again after witnessing the soulless park for the first time.

You probably see this as me hating the park, and you’re right. I don’t like not liking parks, but this one takes the cake for the most soulless thing I have ever seen. There are more interesting ones you can go to such as Surrey Lake Park or Tynehead. At least those places have something going for them.
