The last week or two has been a wonderful reminder of just why I adore London. Aided by a bank holiday, short week, mucho sunshine and good people, was a little surreal, but utterly delicious.
(ps. note the first ‘friday figments and photos’ actually on a Friday for a while – hurrah! The fact that some of the photos are from a couple of weekends ago is neither here nor there, though a slight blog fail…)
Breakfast in Westminster Abbey basements & charity run plotting (5k here we come!)
The joy of gratuitous hanky waving – beer & Morris men dancing – only in England…!
An afternoon of urban beekeeping in a lovely 5* hotel.
Seriously, we have to look after our bees (with varying degrees of hands on attention of course…)
And a celebratory honey cocktail…
Chortled at some Blogger problems
Tasted some of the poshest ‘chicken in a basket’ I’ve ever laid eyes on.
Played a little London landmark bingo – 4 in one photo! Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, the London Eye & a double decker bus. I’m just disappointed there wasn’t a red telephone box…
A little bit of this.
Sipped a cocktail or two as we watched trains slide through London to the Continent.Made several .
I started my plans for world domination by curating the @PeopleofUK curating Twitter account…
…and made several Art Deco discoveries in The Strand with my favourite Luxembourger …
All in all, a rather fascinating week…
