Pimlico

They built a monument for a master builder in Pimlico, which I find much more appropriate than the many monuments of kings, generals or politicians elsewhere.

P and I  did arrive in London ok, but we both found the journey really stressful - from not finding the pre-booked parking space at the airport, to travelling in a packed-to-the-rafters plane, waiting for 45 minutes for our luggage, and finding our way through London‘s labyrinth of public transport. 

But as soon as we were greeted by our hosts (my English cousin Sue and her husband) with a wonderful lunch spread, we could relax. 

Still, P‘s back problems have gotten worse today, and he is very much at the end of his tether. I can only hope that he will get better soon.
