Window Shopping

London Lamborghini have a shop in Kensington, which seems to attract as many people to its window displays as Selfridges does.

Millenium Bridge

Just across the river is the Tate Modern. We wanted to cross, but the nice man said "come back tomorrow", so we went the long way round.

Hunger is the best sauce.


The Gamble Room in the Victoria and Albert Museum was designed as a place to partake of refreshment, and to this day one can still enjoy a nice cup of tea (or a passable coffee) from within.

The inscription on the frieze is a quote from Ecclesiastes II, 24 and reads 'There is nothing better for a man than that he should eat and drink, and make his soul enjoy the good of his labour.'

Indeed.

Pharmacy

 I've heard it said that France is distinctly visible from space, made obvious by the green glow of all the pharmacy illuminations.  Certainly they seem to be in abundance, but then Optometrists are in proliferation as well, but when a Pharmacy is also an Optometrist, one can only be in Paris.
