Wednesday 28th October - London
I'm sitting in our basement room at the Shaftesbury Premier London Hyde Park in Paddington blogging on our last day in Europe. Despite the impressive hotel name, this is anything but Premier. More like the inspiration for the Kink's Dead End Street: There's a crack upon the ceiling, and the kitchen sink is leaking, What are we living for, two roomed apartment on the second floor. Two rooms!........luxury!. Ray Davies sure nailed it.
Despite this somewhat gloomy introduction, we have had a wonderful time during the past week - London has really laid on an autumn to remember. Skateboarders and shopgirls are wearing shorts and the Christmas decorations in Oxford Street look stunning. We spent most of the past week exploring Bath and the Cotswolds, of which I will expand upon at a later date - let's just say it was magical cruising the minor roads in our 1200cc VW Polo.
Off to Singapore tonight from Heathrow - fingers crossed.
