The Foxer

Warm-Up Foxer (Where am I?)

I'm standing on a railway line. I'm at the same latitude as one of England's highest peaks and the same longitude as the capital of a landlocked African country. I can see a green crane. The street I'm on is named after a Dutch city. I'm a 10 minute stroll from a monument to the victims of a 1970 protest and a mile from a WW2 destroyer. A man has just walked past me carrying two carrier bags.
