Last London Visitors

On Saturday evening we nipped down to Paddington Station to meet our friends from Macclesfield.

Now here is a sign you don't see much ...

We normally get the Grommit photo when friends and relos leave but as we were there any way, we got it out of the way!  We dropped their bags back at the boat had a quick spag bol then went down the Queen Vic for a few beers ...

On Sunday Phil and Kathy took off sightseeing whilst Elaine and myself had a most relaxing day sitting in the sunshine, with Elaine making jewellery and me catching up on a bit of reading.

This duck and her ducklings have been hanging around the boat for ages, not sure what she is, looks like some kind of hybrid ...

Sunday night we walked to a fantastic Thai restaurant in Notting Hill.  We walked via Little Venice where the setting sun made a spectacular vista ...

Sunday night in London on a balmy evening and the pubs are packed ...

We caught a bus back to the boat and had a very late night night with a few more drinks and laughs.

Kate update ...

This morning's (Monday) media throng ...

IT'S A GIRL !!!!!
