Wednesday 20th April

Had to find Vodaphone Outlet as Italian internet USB stick not working in England. We now find Uk stick only for Uk!!! Amazing what salespersons will tell you. Had trouble getting started and ended up back in shop for them to install new USB stick.Laundry done - went to St Pancras Station to check out where we will arrive from Paris and find out where we can leave excess baggage. Spent some hours deciding on what we would like to see and how to get there. Given that public holidays including Easter start pretty soon this will need some thought. Been another hot day for the Poms today - in fact all & sundry lying around the parks in various states of undress soaking up the sun - could be back in Africa. Have forgotten what it is like to live in a city- ambulance, cops & fire engines seem to run artound the clock.
