What we've been doing...

Horses on the hill at the allotments...



Tower bridge...



Boat trip on the Thames...



On the grass outside the Maritime Museum in Greenwich...





High up on Beachy Head...



and deep down in the Underground. The escalators were broken so Bobby's mum had to walk all the way down those steep stairs; a bit frightening for all concerned. I'm grateful it was at a quiet time of day - it would have been terrifying if there'd been loads of rushing commuters pushing past her.



Outside Buckingham Palace. (There's water behind them, and no, he didn't actually fall in...)



And to tea in a rather sinisterly decorated farm shop.



Poor swine-flued Bobby missed out on a lot, though he did recover in time to have a good day in London with his sister yesterday. He's back at work today; what an infuriating waste of his week of leave!

And, note all the blue sky! The weather has been glorious; the English summer at its best.

the photos are *gorgeous*
The horses and flowers one most especially delighted.
Glad Bobby is better. That is unfortunate timing!
And those stairs look daunting (escalator).
