Crystal Palace 27 Feb - 4 Mar 14

A long stay this time - 6 nights in London. How decadent!

I know this route now and the journey was uneventful, setting up in a different area of the site from our usual favourite spot. Then it was the walk down the hill to meet Debs at the station and a nice meal and relaxing glass of wine back in our second home, On Thursday Debs went to work and I took the train to Victoria, wandered around Buckingham Palace and then hired a Boris Bike to pootle around the royal parks, finally ending up in the Victoria and Albert Museum.  On Friday I did a bit of admin in the bus, then wandered around the local area. Penge is not a very nice area to wander around. Saturday it was off to Twickenham, a big breakfast and then the game (Quins v Worcester - a pretty dire game all round). We then met up for a coffee with Barry before heading back to CP and a relaxing night's kip.

Off to work

Sunday saw us on the bus to the Mother in Law's for lunch and then on Monday it was up early for Debs to go to work and me to accompany my Mum to have her cataract removed. On Tuesday I had a nice breakfast in the café at the station and an uneventful journey home.

In summary - a nice run out, but it would be good to go somewhere other than London for a bit of peace and quiet!
