Ankle-weary on Oxford Street

Wednesday 24 July 

Today was set aside for some “list-ticking”.

A million calories per slice

 

Another royal tribute

There are some activities which must be done when in London, and these include having tea and cakes in “Valeries”,

 walking on Oxford Street, and shopping in John Lewis Department Store. (We know how to live!).

We briefly discussed buying the £35000 90-inch TV, but decided that we would also need to buy a much larger boat, so we just moved on.

“The baby” is everywhere, including even on Google, who are composing “the biggest congratulations card ever”. Boats in St Katharine Dock are dressed overall, and the nation holds its breath as the bookies constantly reset the odds on what the baby's name will be.


Only at John Lewis - a revolving sun-trap!



 

Oxford Street is as fascinating as ever, although it seems to take longer to traverse each time, so it was a relief to get back to the Dock, and dinner at a nearby eating place
