Glad you had such a fab time, Ali, and it was great to have a bit of a catch-up at the conference. Now, I must go and try out that Kensington Creperie... *tootles off intent on a calorie overload* :D<br />CxInner Whispershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04577110987784585986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-55801917290275255602013-10-18T15:11:29.118+01:002013-10-18T15:11:29.118+01:00I would loooooove to go to the Met!!!

The food isn't fancy - indeed the photos that come up on the tv 'advertising' screen look a bit 70s! But as far as taste goes - it's totally yummy! http://www.kensingtoncreperie.com/Alison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-46998146058092920422013-10-18T11:03:56.470+01:002013-10-18T11:03:56.470+01:00*high five*

It cost less to walk around the Met for six hours AND get a cup of tea and a biscuit. I am SO JEALOUS you saw Spamalot. I am assuming I should visit the Creperie when there next?Lisa-Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135752484387782593noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-44966417281731902612013-10-16T22:10:55.068+01:002013-10-16T22:10:55.068+01:00We had a quick look around The British Museum the ...We had a quick look around The British Museum the last time we were there - was that really 2 years ago?! I am slowly but surely working out that you need to just focus on a little bit of it every time you visit :-D Not been to the Wellcome Trust Museum, must look that up - thank you for the recommendation!!<br />Alison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-54247061123642868252013-10-16T20:14:13.537+01:002013-10-16T20:14:13.537+01:00So glad you had a good time!

I adore London (my OH lives there when he's not working in New York) and I'm spending 3 of the next 4 weekends there (it's cheaper when you have friends spare rooms/sofas to crash on). The V&A is glorious but for me the British Museum comes in a tied first place with the Wellcome Trust's museum. Both completely different but both intensly fascinating (if you go again). <br />Anyway, enough rambling.

The choices available to you in London are just so fantastic - right outside our accommodation - freshly prepared Japanese food, mexican burritos and KFC. Inside the train station was a stall that sold vegetables that we don't get on the island! I am missing London quite a bit! BUT on the other hand - last night was so quiet that I slept like a log! I could see the moon and stars BUT best of all - I got Nero back!Alison Crosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565962059926865121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-58034133064873880442013-10-16T19:03:56.756+01:002013-10-16T19:03:56.756+01:00Bazillions of thank yous for each and every time y...Bazillions of thank yous for each and every time you post.

The Tower is always worth it, though. How long does it take to come back down emotionally from the big city? Since you live so remotely, it must be a bit of withdrawal...well, the wine may provide some transitional compensation.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-35042607204030163892013-10-16T16:45:39.872+01:002013-10-16T16:45:39.872+01:00Ah, they're all corvidae, don't be so pick...Ah, they're all corvidae, don't be so picky ;DAniahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09978191634506926045noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4776380217462070463.post-16223347583500223362013-10-16T16:42:00.084+01:002013-10-16T16:42:00.084+01:00Ditto!

Such a pity that Jo couldn't make it - but the weather did get a bit crap, didn't it? <br /><br />You will be pleased to hear that you have a new fan in Tartarus. The wine was absolutely beautiful - but I have to add water to it otherwise my head starts throbbing just looking at it!! Hope you got home safe and sound!
