I'm here

Self-portrait in fountain: Cromwell Rd

And it's not actually raining! I'm drinking a g&t in my hotel room, munching on "buffalo mozzarella and herbs" crisps, and will shortly have a supper of cold chicken and salad and strawberries and cream (and more gin).

I've been up for more than 27 hours (barring some light sleeping on the plane). I'm very tired, but trying to tough it out so as to force my body onto a more normal schedule as quickly as possible.

Anyway - I've settled into my nice cosy little hotel room

I went shopping for groceries, and then explored my neighbourhood

My Local

There is a Tube strike, at least for tomorrow, but somehow I don't feel like it's going to slow me down all that much!

It's so great to be here. See you tomorrow!

That looks like Portland Place... (the houses with pillars).

It's not you - it does always rain in London. And when it doesn't - on those rare occasions - they have hosepipe bans so that people can't water their gardens and parks go dry. Stupid!

How I don't miss London. Must be nice to visit it as a tourist!
