London town, where skies are blue.

After a few days in the lovely Forest of Dean, we made our way to London town where we embraced the city like true tourists, and by 'we' I mean me. First we went to this amazing pub in Notting Hill for some class thai food which we enjoyed amongst many crazed football fanatics. And naturally I quoted continuously from Notting Hill (the film), for example:
SPIKE: there's something wrong with this yoghurt.
WILLIAM: it's not yoghurt it's mayonaise.
I'm sure you can imagine the novelty of it all.
Anyhoo, we spent the next day galavanting around the town, which I must say is quite pretty indeed. The photos below are a selection of our adventures...what you don't see is that Gavin made me open my mouth in almost every picture.




26 and still fresh..




...to be sure.

Coming soon to Insect Speed:
- memories from up north
- easter with anna
- the forest of dean is nearly in wales/the strongest cider ever!
- 26 and still fresh
- london town, where skies are blue

N.B sorry for the delay - personally, i'm blaming a certain 11,000 words on harold pinter, seamus heaney, and contemporary irish theatre.
