Hanging in the ol Town

Wanderings around London are one of my favorite things. Ive just finished a quick walk throught the Silver Markets- about 40 shops, 50 meters below London near the Courts in Westminster. They are basically a walk-in safe with a fellow inside. Quite a find from a quick chat with a bloke in the Cornish pastry shop (tasty too- the pastry not the bloke). Just next door is the walk into the Lincoln place and church, with its own little Member's club hidden behind vast iron gates. The wandering takes me home on the 25 Bus.
Wilbur and Phil have been busy and there is a meal on the table. Good thing I'm in thier good books. A good chat and a glass of plonk put us all in the mood for a quite night in - so phil goes climbingand to the pub. what do ya figure when they are only younguns- Im so envious of the energy.
I wake to another beautiful day in London with the sun up and the temperature down. I will walk today for Oxford Street and the Covent Gardenand catch the boat from the Canary wharf. Have to leave the Airport by 4.00pm so back home it is, to pack and travel. I slide my boots on and count the bags I carry. It's here I know I'm back on the road. See ya in Queensland.
