London 2 October

Pete had some prep work to do for another talk he is giving at a dive club tonight so we caught up on exciting things like ...... washing.

Piccadilly Circus

We then headed to 'Piccadilly Circus'.  Hannah was in control of getting us there on the tube - did a great job!  Just as I remembered - fill of hustle & bustle.  Performers & Buskers.

We strolled up Oxford Street to 'Hamleys' Toy Store.  Hamleys is the oldest toy shop in the world.  OMG - the girls were in heaven!  Knowing we wouldn't be able to stick together for long Pete & I paired up with one of the girls and headed off.....   5 levels of every toy/arts & crafts you can imagine and the amazing thing is how they have staff showing off some of the toys and art which the kids (both young & old) can try!

Regent Street

However as expected very expensive so Hannah & Chloe only bought one thing each.

Left the store and walked all the way up 'Oxford Street' (window shopping).  Oh boy - if Pete hadn't been with us there could have been serious damage done to the credit card :)  Ended up just buying a few souvenirs.





Back on the Tube to go home so that Pete could head off for his talk.  The girls and I had a catch up night with Monique & Nigel watching a movie.
