It was a relief to see Doug's plane landing in London. I had been expecting a strike or something as so many of my journeys are messed up at the moment. Pretty much on time though so all good.
We ate in many many different places. This is the view from Royal China in Canary Wharf. Nice outside tables.
The Cutty Sark. Aidan and I went not long ago, and Doug thought it sounded good.
The bunks were pretty small as this was the largest one.
View of work from Greenwich observatory (on the hill above the Cutty Sark)
On the tube, bit different to the lovely country side in France
On the escalator
Cool new route master buses (I guess not very new, been around a couple of years maybe)
Trafalgarsquare
Exhibition at the National Gallery
Was good, interesting mix
China town
River at Hammersmith. We went to a 40th birthday party in a pub on the right of the picture here. Was really fun with free food and beer! Brill!
Amounst many other things we ate sushi. (other things being curry, dim sum, chinese crispy duck, pub food... and many more...)
The British Museum
View from the members room - Aidan is a member
Holy cow
Another holy cow in the Sunken Cities exhibition
Ram
The Elgin Marbles. Always makes me think of a Georgette Heyer book called Cotillion where a character Freddy gets really outraged at being made to go and see the Elgin Marbles (when they first arrived in London) because they don't have heads and are all broken up.
Assyrian statues. Our favorite things in the BM
More asyrian stuff. What are they doing with the lemon and handbag. Loads of them have them.
The O2 as seen from the Gun pub/restaurant near the flat
Aidan and Doug in the Gun
