> Hullo, Dr Bob. Can I ask you, did you meet up with anybody yesterday, like Nikki? I would have love to have met up with you and some others, but unfortunately I couldn't take time off yesterday. What are you doing tomorrow (Friday)? Anything exciting? How long are you over here for?
There for a week, thankfully got back before disaster struck... Didn't meet up with anyone. Didn't get to "fly" the London Eye, but did see it. Also came across a webcam of it (unfortunately not *from* it):

Found some nice restaurants, went to a lot of theater. Queued up in intermittent drizzle for 3 hours (but had my laptop, so worked when it was dry) for a floor cushion for the final performance of the Tragedy of Hamlet -- and it was worth it. Went to Blue/Orange, about a patient on a psychiatric unit. Saw Big Ben, went to Evensong at Westminster Abbey. Walked around Covent Garden and through the British Museum and the Tate Modern. English bacon and black pudding, yum. Took the Tube everywhere, it was so convenient. Had a great time! :-)
