12 hours later with
a tum full of Basa fish and some yucky other meal that I have thankfully
forgotten and we were getting off the plane in Heathrow at 5:00 in the morning.
We caught the train
through the suburbs to Greenpark and then tubed it to Bermondsey where Shazzy
was waiting with a big smile and cuddle, and went back to their apartment to
meet up with Shanny and Ken.
We had our
traditional welcoming full English Breakfast in Shad Thames with Sharon and Ken
before he headed off to work.
Ken went off to
work, as did Shanny, and Michelle went back to the apartment to rest up, so
Shaz and I went for a walk down to the Tower Bridge.

It was the Queen's Birthday and in her honour
we watched 62 rounds being fired from a 105mm Howitzer outside the Tower of
London (well we got bored of that after about 10 rounds).

| For some reason, I just love old city walls |
We caught the tube
to Baker Street to meet up with Shanny for a meatball and salad lunch at
Filosophy and to check out her new offices.

| Yep, Benedict Arnold lived here |

On the way back home
we stopped at The Vault under Tower Bridge for a Pimms darling and Prosecco and
chilled at Shaz and Kens place till dinner time.
We walked along the
Thames to the Horniman's at Hays for some British pub fare; I went the bangers
and mash, and will very full bellies we walked back along the Thames, stopping
in at Shad Thames for some coffee and dessert.
A glorious day.
