Well thanks to Eirlys & John ( who have taken four dogs to their bosoms) and John & Mandy next door ( who have looked after the field) I have been given a pass to accompany my husband to London for a quick overnight jaunt.
I'll be back in Trelawnyd by noon tomorrow, The Prof is working in tbe capital for most of the week.
We've crammed a lot in

We've crammed a lot in
The Prof & I in The British Museum)
A quick visit to the British Museum ( above)
A cracking Indian meal at Dishoom at Covent Garden ( we had to queue outside!)
A walk town along the River
A free organ recital at Westminster Abbey ( I've never been)
Drinks in Soho
Followed by cinema at Leicester Square
( " A Little Chaos " with the fulsome Kate Winslett)
It's been a cracking Day
Perfect! You two gents warm my very heart.
ReplyDeletesounds like a fun time was had by all.......
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great day!
ReplyDeleteSounds amazing!

Lovely photo of you both . Good to get away for a night out xx
ReplyDeleteHow cool you both look in that pic. I would love to take a trip to London again. Great that you managed to cram so much in. Good to get time together away from home xx

You know, I think the Prof has quite warmed to your blog. He's in pictures now, and may even be taking some, though I think your arm is responsible for this one.
ReplyDeleteI think he's still remaini a more shadowy figure on going gently..........no publicity and all that
Deleteyou two are so damn cute! :-)
ReplyDeleteOoh, I'm going to "A little chaos" tonight. Alan Rickman, yeah! Sounds like a lovely break, Like Jo, I'm impressed with how much you've crammed in. I love the B.M. In my younger days I worked at the Natural History Museum for two years - I love museums!
ReplyDeleteHoly Shit! You've been busy!
ReplyDeleteI sincerely hope that Eirlys & John haven't literally taken your dogs to their bosoms as they could have their nipples bitten off and what would life be like without nipples? One of God's better inventions in my view.
ReplyDeleteThat's what I love about Europe, you can just take quick day-trips to entirely new countries. In Australia it's literally an 8-hour drive just to get to the nearest state capital.
ReplyDeleteOhh, I had a meal at the place in Dishoom...the one in Covent Garden maybe? Spicy lamb chop as I remember....that was back when I was consulting with the company in Kent.
ReplyDeleteI had the spicy lamb chops .......they were divine
Deleteah newlyweds...what a great sounding day
ReplyDeleteA full fun day with your husband and to recharge your inner batteries too, it doesn't get any better!
ReplyDeleteSounds like such a wonderful day! o happy for you both. Good for you taking a day for yourselves.
ReplyDeleteCan't think of a more delightful day. Well, I could, but wouldn't matter here.
ReplyDeleteWhen you have responsibilities 24/7, it is really a treat to have them suspended for even a short time and do things that feed your soul.
ReplyDeleteGreat photo!
You've done more in a day than I do in a month. Cute photo.
ReplyDeleteHow on earth can you do all that in one day; The British Museum itself takes a month (at the least).
ReplyDeleteWe only popped in to see mummy
DeleteGorgeous photo of you and your husband (and I love the frequency and pride with which you use the word).
ReplyDeleteNopr, not a bit romantical, are you? I'm in a state of envy just now, the one (!) Indian restaurant in town has tumbled from the top of the deliciousness heap to the bottom of the 'I want to go again' list.
ReplyDeleteThey once did a crackin' khorma, a brilliant biryani... now even their naan is dicey.
Ah well, sounds like a fabulous day, glad you got to accompany your husband!
Dishoom is an amazing indian eatery
DeleteJust rub it in John! If I want Indian I have to make it myself!
DeleteCinema in Leicester Square, of all places? My, you must be flushed!
ReplyDelete(I only see that film in a few days time. Hope the largely negative reviews I've seen are wrong. But you already know.)
I'll review it later Ray........it was good ( in bits)
DeleteRight-ee-o!
DeleteSounds like the perfect day!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is from London.... and we pop over from time to time, but not as often as I wished we could. Anyway, I can`t remember how I found your blog. But I liked the style, the images and text.,,,, Happy new week!Greetings from Norway.
Hello Gunn( is that your name...if so i love it)
DeleteWelcome to going gently
It was just as expensive as a main feature at bloody llandudno!
ReplyDeleteGlad that your Sunday turned out a lot better than Saturday!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the review of 'A Little Chaos'. Big fan of Mr. Rickman but shy away from directors who also act in the film.
ReplyDeleteThe mummies are fab, aren't they?
Do you both good - an early mini honeymoon?
ReplyDeleteGood for you.....a little break is good for the soul.
ReplyDeleteThe British is wonderful, great atrium. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteChris' scarf pulled tight tells me it might be cold, but a fun trip together probably warmed you up.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful way to enjoy an outing with the one you love...with not one dog fanny insight!
ReplyDeleteSounds great, much better than shite Saturday :) x
ReplyDeleteI LOVE that photo!
ReplyDeleteLovely photo.
ReplyDeleteIt looks as if Chris is saying 'Look what I have to put up with' ... but in the nicest possible way ;-)
Oh that was bad timing (or good, you choose) we were at the V&A for the girlie's 18th on 14 Apr. We could have met up (rolls on floor laughing).
ReplyDeleteFilm looks good, thanks for review will give it a try.....when it's on telly due to lack of cash *sigh*
