LONDON

We had a great day in London, DD and I, but it was tiring, and we had sore feet when we got home. The taxi I had booked to take us to the station arrived on time, and we were at the station in plenty of time. There's not much traffic at that time in the morning - 6.15 am, although a few people walking/staggering the streets on their way home from a Friday night out.

DD got a new camera last week, so she had to get some photo's of the sights. For those who don't know London, we have the London Eye and Big Ben.





And this is Liberty, I'd never been before, so we had a wander around inside, and I bought some soap, there were some nice clothes, but a bit out of my price range. They had some lovely fabric and buttons, and lace, but I didn't buy.


I've not done any stitching in the last few days, and I am late mailing my Garden theme exchange, I hope my partner likes what I've made, it will be in the post tomorrow. My car still does not work, but it's back to work for me tomorrow, and I'll be on the bus again, oh well. I've ordered my grocery shopping online, and that will be delivered on Wednesday night. I am out tomorrow night, so I think I'll have to walk there, I hope my feet have recovered by then.
