we are back from a gorgeous jaunt to old London town...
i feel like i've had a mini holiday...
the sun was HOT...
London was as heavenly as always...
& the cousins made more memories together...
so let's share a glass of elderflower & mineral water & catchup...
righto...
a seat in the garden...
face up to the glorious sunshine...
& tell me how you are?
have the seasons changed for you?
we are having STUNNING spring weather...
we romped round Buckingham Palace & the like in tee's & birky's...
we cruised round London streets in the big ol'open topped red bus in sunscreen & hats...
L.O.V.E.L.Y!!
if we were really catching up for an elderflower or two in the garden today...
i would show you all my i-phone photos...
i didn't use my camera once...
even though i adore her & indeed did drag her to London, i totally relied on my i-phone...
how cool is that...
i think i'm a photo app junkie...a very happy one...
if we were really catching up...
i'd so talk you into visiting London with you kiddos if the chance ever came up...
kids are brilliant travelling & exploring a city with a bit of history thrown in...
& London has it in spades...
St.Paul's...
Mary Poppins...
Big Ben...
&
of course this week all the wedding hoopla at Buckingham Palace...
they were loving it & i was in my element...
my gorgeous family
&
my brothers gorgeous family...
together sunning it in London...
aussie kids in deep in english history...
another glass...?
keep your face up in the sun...i'll pour sweets...
so...aside from the history & the gorgeous making of memories...
there was of course mountains of inspiration for me...
i now need me a bar & some lampshade glamour somewhere in my life....!
i need these two shops somewhere down my high street...
& i need to work out how to get this shop, exactly as it is, home to australia, in yet another crate when we leave...
Mr All Sorts...i could hardly bare it!
so...my sweet blogging friends...
finish up your elderflower & head up to our village fruit shop...
buy yourselves some spring flowers
&
go sit on the Green watching english life go by...
i'm heading up for blooms later...
i have a wedding-6th-birthday party to prepare for...
...hope i've tempted you to add London to your must-see-the-world-with-the-kiddos-list...
if we'd really caught up today
i would have sent you home with a little Buckingham Palace snow dome
...one can never have to much kitsch on the eve of a Royal Wedding...
&
remember, when you've finished on the Green, head over to my gorgeous friends Amy's for more
virtual catching-up *here*
