Day 1   Day 2    Day 3    Day 4    Day 5    Day 6    Day 7    Day 8 Not a huge amount happened today. Of course, a lot 'happens' but not the sort that can be photographed or recorded in the normal way.   I traveled up with Francoise  and we alighted at Kentish Town overground.   We went  our separate ways. She went to have a look what changes had happened in Kentish Town High Street and I went...

Day 1   Day 2    Day 3    Day 4    Day 5    Day 6    Day 7    Day 8 Our journey down to Margate was uneventful. This was our first big purchase using our Two-Together  card,  which costs £30 per year,  On this trip alone we saved 24 Pounds so in my book that is a winner.  We arrived at Bromley South station through which most trains to the extreme south east coast go. The whole trip takes around...

Day 1   Day 2    Day 3    Day 4    Day 5    Day 6    Day 7    Day 8 We took my sister to Bromley just to have an outing.

Day 1   Day 2    Day 3    Day 4    Day 5    Day 6    Day 7    Day 8 We both set out for our first visit to the newly constructed Battersea Power Station. The station itself has a preservation order on it but now instead of machinery to power London with electricity we had something that I did not dream of.   We took a fast train to Victoria and then a slow train to Battersea Park.  I was not...

Day 1   Day 2    Day 3    Day 4    Day 5    Day 6    Day 7    Day 8 This is the first morning of our week of freedom where we complete ourselves pretty much what we do.  To Victoria and from thence a local line to Brixton.   First we had a meeting at 11:30 with the lady who wanted to see us about our work and  our website. This was preceded by a visit to Brixton Library which is a very community...

Up early as usual and after an uneventful bus ride we decide to eat something in one of the cafes adjacent to Bath bus station. We were greeted by this rather nice display of flowers in the main shopping centre. It is easy to spend quite a lot on breakfast. I had a croisant and coffee and Francoise had the equivalent.  Next to us, two ladies were waiting for their portion of hot breakfast. When...
