Well, here's what we did yesterday, but feel free to add your own ideas.


We spent the afternoon walking through central London to include Museum of London, a walk through the above-ground walkways through the Barbican, then up the Champagne Bar at Tower 42 (which we had to book in advance and spend ?10 at the bar, so naturally we drank champagne). Here's a view!

It truly is amazing. The bar is on 42nd floor and you have to book in advance and each of you to spend ?10 at the bar. However, that floor only has about 150 degrees of view. The restaurant a floor below has 180 degrees of view, but I am not that rich! MrPR took the above photo - my camera is full of that film stuff so they won't be ready for a while! On a clear day we could have made out our flat and also in the north the Alexandra Palace. But hell, this ain't bad.

    • Anyone upgraded their TV for Christmas?! I'm looking for a smallish Smart TV I can use with earbuds. Not more than 56cm high and  25cm deep. A 26" one used to fit.  Thanks!
    • It wasn't an antique and bric-a-bac shop but an antique market with a number of different traders, the cafe supported all the dealers in bringing in custom, and was good enough to generate trade for them. It was Rodney Franklin's and his partners enterprise, he previously had an antique shop in Queenstown Road in Battersea. His late wife ran the cafe (she was a very fine actress, it was a 'resting' job).  It was on the corner of a junction on the left as you head towards Camberwell. And almost opposite, if memory serves at all, an MFI style furniture outlet. 
    • i used to go there in the late 80's and '90s (?) the food was served cafeteria style and there was limited choice, but what there was alays tasted amazing!  The garden was an absolute paradise, you could sit in it to lunch in the summer!  i've tried to locate its site but Walworth Road has changed so much since then - does anyone remember the house number?
    • This is very true. For some people, not even just the elderly, their pet/s may be their most important companion.
