London Friday 5th June



On the Tube out to Ilford at the end of the Central Line–met at the station by Alice Moss, Susans nan who is a very sprightly, cheerful, generous 83 year old woman. Walked back to her house and had lunch there with her –chicken and leek pie, ham and salmon sandwiches, fruit cake, gingerbread and cups of tea –a veritable feast and cheerful conversation. Back into London past the building site for the 2012 London Olympics, and off to the posh shops in Knightbridge like Harrods. A&K went on a shopping spree at Primart and H&L walked down to Sloan Square and met Emma Pirie for very cheerful drink and dinner ( in Helens case drinks plural!!). A&K sucessfully navigated their own way home to Paddington on the Tube for the first time!!
