On the road!

Louise didn't really have much chance to settle before we set of on another journey down to Devon to see my dad and Pat. We travelled down my coach in the pouring rain (I'm glade I wasn't driving). We arrived at Devon and was met by dad. I was expecting him to have changed in the way he looks (shrunk) but he hasn't which I'm pleased about. Seeing him waiting for us filled me with emotion, it's been a long time.

Back at dad's place we met up with Pat who is looking very well but sadly having trouble with a bad leg. We all spent the evening catching up, it was great.

Sunday we all went of to a pub/restraunt called "Carriages" and had a lovely carvery. Wow, we eat well there.

Louise has arrived

Louise sadly was unable to come over to the UK for the full four weeks that I've been here but joined me later.

I stayed the night just outside Heathrow with Jack and Susan. They have a beautiful new home in Feltham. It was great to spend time with them and see how they've been creating both a lovely home and garden.

We set of early to meet Louise at the airport (sadly Louise was also delayed, but not for to long). Seeing Louise come through the arrivals gate was amazing, I can't believe how much I had missed her.

A day out in London

London is such a vast place with so much to do. Mum and I decided to visit first the Victoria & Albert Museum. This museum has a massive range of exhibits from paintings and photography to statues and colossal columns. We had a great time looking around the place.

The V&A isn't far from Harrods, so we popped in their and had a look around, nice stuff if you happen to have a bulging wallet!

Being that I'm now a tourist in London we had to visit the sights! Off we went to Tower Bridge and the Tower of London followed by Parliament Square, Downing Street and Trafalgar Square.

It's hard work being a tourist! London's sites seem to have more of an appeal to me now that they aren't so readily available to me, strange that.

I have to thank my mum for coping with all the walking, she was a little warn out by the time we finished.

God bless ya mum!
