Bin there done that, got sand in me shoes and a sore bum from excessive camel riding.


Did not care for the food much either.


The place was full of shifty looking types trying to sell me historical paraphernalia.


Never went back so couldn't have rated it highly.


Did not like being badgered constantly when on the street.


Have a nice hols charlie2 dye your hair blonde they really like blondes and brush up your French too.

Working a bit from home and also going round London. Today went to Mitcham then over to Hounslow and then over to Kentish Town and back.

When not working, gardening the balcony plants and wondering again how to stop squirrels ruining everything. The slate chips stopped working for them. :(

Going to friend's beach house Tues and Wed. HooraH!

As its The EDF and to try and keep up with some of our Jones's here, tomorrow I shall visit :

The Great Pyramid of Giza then move onto The Hanging Gardens of Babylon, then I'll take in The Statue of Zeus at Olympia, have a sojourn and see The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus.


In the afternoon I'll explore The Mausoleum of Maussollos at Halicarnassus, investigate The Colossus of Rhodes and finish my day by inspecting The Lighthouse of Alexandria.


Not sure what I'll do on Sunday...

    • London doesn’t have a lot of Argentinian places specialising in empanadas, which suggests demand isn’t that great. There are many neighbourhoods with none at all or even nearby.  So for a mini-chain like Chango (several branches in SW London) to open here where there’s already a well established family run place doing the same feels a bit off.  I’ll be giving Chacarero my ongoing custom. 
    • This is so helpful, everyone, thank you. @green bean Yes we have just (as of yesterday) installed the same external blinds you mention! We already had blackout blinds and we now have the external awnings too. Of course that will guarantee the end of the summer sunshine but I can see that they're going to be helpful as they let the light through but not the glare of the sun - I'm fed up of working in darkness with both the blackout blinds closed on sunny days. We'll see how we go with those for a bit but I reckon we'll get a couple of quotes from the other recommendations in case we end up going the whole hog. @penfold Love the idea of getting solar+batteries to offset the electricity usage so will look into that.  Thanks, all.
    • Yes Sally, I've emailed him several times since Xmas. I don't contact Councillors frequently but when I've done so over the years, I've found them generally engaged and responsive. It's unprecedented to just be ignored and, regardless of the query I'm raising, that's worrying from the point of view of  our local democratic voice. Its a Councillors role to represent local people! A different thread on here made reference to a lack of response from one of our ward councillors and, since there are only two, I'm guessing it's the same one. I'm following up my own concern separately but I'm asking on here about whether others have had the same problem. I'd like to think it's a one-off but, increasingly, I suspect it's not. Hope that gives a bit more context!
