The trip part 4

We spent a a great evening cacthing up with our Rezza neighbour Mr S, who just so happened to be in London at the same time. Funnily enough, we found out he was staying only two train stations away on the same line. Very convenient.

The next day Miss R and I had grand plans of doing another walk around London, but wasn't to be as a dodgy panini ruined Miss R's morning, so we made our way back to Earlsfield where Miss R spent the rest of the day in bed and I ended up catching up on British day time TV. Such quality, although, thankfully, Miss M had the British History Channel, so the nerd within was quietly satisfied with numerous documentaries on the Roman occupation, World War 2 and Ancient Battlefield Strategies.

A catch up day with our very dear friends Miss G and Mr J down in Surbiton was in order. So, Miss R and I made our way on the train only to find that Surbiton had decided to hold, apparently, it's once in a decade street party. Being a recent arrival to the town, Miss G had no idea where all the people had suddenly come from. But she and Mr J kindly took us down to Kingston on Thames where we soaked up some rays for a while. The weather had turned it on by the way.

We all headed back to my sister's house where my dear cousin Super G and his fiance had arrived to meet us. It was an awesome night. Miss M had cooked up a pretty mean roast with...wait for it...Yorkshire puddings!!! So the 8 of us had a really nice feed and chin wag out the back in the courtyard.
