culture vulture

so a top notch brekkie in the swank restaurant. fruit. Poached egg and mucshroom and some blackpud. Tiny nouvelle cuisine portions onest.
The we take a walk to the national gallery. I am ashamed  to say for only the second  time in my life. So many boss pictures some slightly odd ones too. We follow the highlights tour which is for amateurs, sort of NG lite I guess. Drink some water in the sun at trafalagar square then navigate our way to Covent Garden which isn't really us. We get a coffee and cake at posh caff gaff. Sun is shing so trot off to the Strand and jump a bus??? Another big unusual thing for us to do, off to the Tower of London. Doing the tourist bit large now cracking stuff at loving it. Upstairs - even amaze myself at fitting up a spiral staircase in the Bloody Tower. Lunch in a pleasant cafe  after seeing the crown jewels. Hot ham butty, preceded by a beer. Couldnt finish the butty.
