Just returned from a lovely stroll in the Buckingham countryside with Mum, little brother (well 43 yr old) and the Missus. The Missus getting on famously with both parents. She's cooking again tonight.
Showed Mrs Wilson around London. Within 30 minutes from my parents we were in Oxford Circus. Real good train service here. Managed to have lunch in St James's Square before it rained. A pint in The Sussex on the corner of Long Acre off Leicester Square. Then it really poured so we had another drink.
Convent Garden street performers have changed too much for my liking. Shame but I feel the era of the true street performer is now a bygone one. Didn't have time for the City...next time.
Three cousins, who my two brothers and I grew up with, got together for a few pints, brandy and banter. A real lads night out. Mrs Wilson was in her element surrounded by lads. One of the cousins speaks her lingo, having worked in her country for the UN years ago.
Off to Surbiton tomorrow to visit another cousin. Brother flies back to the Far East tomorrow. We on Friday the thirteenth. Gulp.

Pleased to hear you both had a great time in the UK BUT 'Asian Princess?' and 'my angel?' - bloody hell mate, you've only been there a week and you've already been infected with ACS - Asian Cliche Syndrome! Please edit out such nauseating expressions in future or else!
ReplyDeleteCheers and good luck on Friday 13th.
