I haven’t checked-in for ROW80 in a while, as I was away.
Now that I am back home, I’m getting back in the swing of things, even though next week I’ll have a distraction as well, in the form of the lovely Doris, a vegan chef who is coming to stay with me and do a cooking workshop!
If you’ve read my Weekend Coffee Share, you’ll know that I promised photos of my trip to the UK, during which I was in London, Cardiff and Brighton. If not, make sure to check out my theatre reviews for Constellations, Three Days In The Country, and Hamlet!
I’ll be posting another goal list tomorrow, so for now there’s not much to say other that I’m back and catching up on things.
Anyway, the photos I promised:

Love the photos! I never got around to visiting Platform 9 3/4, so I have to make sure I do that next time. Brighton looks beautiful! I will need to go there next time!

Thank you 🙂 It’s not actually on a platform anymore, as the group of people trying to get pictures disrupted actual passengers. It’s on the far side of the main concourse, before you get through the ticket barriers to the trains. Loads of people can queue and take there picture with the trolley, but I didn’t have time for that as the queue was massive. Still, nice idea, though 🙂 I especially like Hedwig!

Stunning photos! London looks like a blast. I can’t wait to see it in 2 weeks. Your photos got me excited even more. Looking forward to seeing you next week and cook up a storm with you!

Thank you hun! I can’t wait either! London is awesome, though I’m a city girl. There are loads of parks and green spaces for you to get lost in though, and vintage /charity shops and markets. For markets, check out Notting Hill and Camden Town. I’m sure some of the stuff there is right up your alley! 🙂
