England - Jan '13

This was the final leg of our European adventure. Winter in the UK can be fun, especially when you only have to endure a couple of weeks of it before flying off to a Sydney summer. Oh, and being dragged around various cosy city and country pubs by various long lost friends also helped wink

Good times... now... back to reality!

Birthday drinks in London. And quick... take a picture of the traditional English spread before it's gone! wink

Wednesday 16 January 2013

Squirrels and other fluffy little wildlife (and some not so little!) in London's Hyde Park. In Winter. Brrrrr!

Wednesday 16 January 2013

Be careful feeding the Hyde Park squirrels from your hand... they might take more than you think! wink

Wednesday 16 January 2013

Lunch at Royal China. Still some of the best Yum Cha in London. Someone's happy as first we'd had in a year! Yum! tongue

Thursday 17 January 2013

Newman Arms for lunch. Great pies & beer. Great company from way back. They are shy types mind, hence the bokeh wink tongue

Saturday 19 January 2013

The Sun Inn, Bentworth. Another fantastic choice by Mr W. So cosy (necessity in this weather!) & great food. Cheers!

Sunday 20 January 2013

Oh no... not another pub lunch! wink tongue This time it's Barton's Mill. And a snowy stroll by the river after. Nice! smile

Monday 21 January 2013

Passing through Lincoln so stopped by the cathedral. Unlike most over in France there's no free entry here though sad

Bit of snow in UK = 'traffic chaos' = everyone stays home = empty roads = Basingstoke to Lincoln in 3hr. Suits me! grin

Thursday 24 January 2013

Fish & chips & mushy peas... with champagne? Errrrm... OK wink tongue Very nice they were too! grin
