They all live round here you know!

Clive & I took a spin out into the countryside yesterday ending up in Moreton-in-Marsh. We stopped at The Black Bear for a lovely lunch. Well we drove back through Lechlade on the way home ( to call in on Clive Mum & Dad in Abingdon for a cuppa and an iced bun). As we waited for the lights I looked across the road and saw a tiny little antiques shops with a familiar looking chap looking in the window. That bloke looks like... and it was it was John Noakes! Remember him shinning up Nelson Column to clean all that pigeon @*%! Didn't see Kate Moss though (she lives near in Faringdon).

Clive and I are having a few days up in central London for my birthday week. We gonna do all the sights, including for definite - London Eye, seeing the giant squid at the Natural History museum (see their website www.nhm.ac.uk for pictures) and numerous other museums (John Soanes, V&A, science...),plus some nice food and drink and hopefully a trip to the theatre.

Looking forward to seeing you both G & G next week.
