We went on to visit many tourist spots, including the Houses of Parliament, Downing Street, The British Museum, Leicester Square, & Piccadilly Circus.

A highlight was a river cruise taking in the Tower of London, HMS Belfast & Tower Bridge.

A fun day & a good opportunity to meet other TMMB-ers 'in the flesh' so to speak !

I wondered that !

Guess he saw the shot being lined up & thought, "I don't want to be in that !"

That photo was actually taken at a cafe in Covent Garden - yet another stop on our Monkey tour of London.

Good luck to those of you who are meeting our friend Javi during the next few days!


Oh, Covent Garden, yes, sorry !

Tea & coffee served in cups without handles, like small bowls !

Tricky when scalding hot !

We thought of that, but Javi reckons they're unknown in South America, so we ploughed on regardless............

All joking aside, I had a real fab and cool time with Javi, he's a good guy.
Here he is at Arnold Grove, birthplace (and home of George Harrison) with our FAB FOUR TAXI/CAB tour guide Pete Guy.
