Me, my laptop and Marilyn..
We're here, really here in London with throbbing feet and cheery hearts, slightly lighter purses and posh shopping bags. I love it. Yes I do.
I have almost forgotten that to get here I had to sit behind the bus driver, who kept farting. Not loudly. but very noticeably in a crawling up your nostrils and choking the very daylight out of you way, dirty git.
We met, without incident, caught the right bus, found the hotel, we are bloody marvellous.
We did the tube, we went to covent garden. We ate and shopped and blow me if we didn't spend so long there we jolly well ate again before coming back here to rest our weary wallets.
Do you want pictures?
Do you?
We saw great street performers and laughed, a lot.......Marilyn said it was kind of like Santa Monica ( and I have been there and think she is right) except she said that this was SO much better. Hoorah.
We have booked tickets for tomorrow to go to dinner and a show. Imagine. We can wake up when we are ready, eat our continental breakfast in a leisurely fashion before we head for Harrods and shopping and stuff.
I already have so much to carry home, Julie Q the thanksgiving stuff is fabulous , thankyou! I know the time is going to fly. I'm a bit worried about sleeping, or not, but Marilyn says she can sleep through most things so we'll see.
I have my torch and my laptop...I can read blogs and visit people. It'll be fine.
Pictures.
Lunch venue, pub lunch, naturally.
Covent garden.....
this man was hysterical!
this one was my favourite, he was great, sang beautfully and really entertained us.
yes, he was wearing a thing and juggling with a chain saw.....each to his own!
Just so English and pretty...
My drink at dinner time, Lemonade with fresh lime and mint, delicious

You are so welcome Helen! It was fun to shop for you. I hope it makes Thanksgiving seem more real for H and your family. :)
I am actually dying of jealousy.
Dying!
No,seriously, I am happily jealous, and I am loving your pictures. My obsession with all things British is increasing every minute :)
I need another trip across the pond - and soon!
